Minerals & Waste Planning Policy - Current Policy

The Hampshire Minerals & Waste Development Framework

Since 2005, planning policy had been prepared for inclusion in a 'folder' or collection of planning documents known as The Hampshire Minerals & Waste Development Framework.  This set of documents included important 'plans' for the future as well as a set of supporting documents.

The Hampshire, Portsmouth and Southampton Minerals & Waste Local Plan ('saved' policies)

The Hampshire, Portsmouth and Southampton Minerals and Waste Local Plan was adopted in December 1998. This replaced the Hampshire Minerals Local Plan (adopted in 1987). It contains detailed policies for the control of minerals and waste development and identifies preferred sites to provide for the minerals and waste development requirements in Hampshire Portsmouth and Southampton to the year 2001.

Although the Hampshire, Portsmouth and Southampton Minerals and Waste Local Plan has been mostly superseded by the Core Strategy as of June/July 2007, there are still some site specific policies that have been retained until the Hampshire Minerals & Waste Plan is adopted.
