UK Shared Prosperity Fund Programme 2025-26

In December 2024, Thanet District Council received notification from Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) that the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) has been extended for a final year - April 2025 to March 2026. The aim of the UKSPF extension year is to provide a smooth transition from the existing UKSPF programme to a new, future funding framework, yet to be announced. Thanet has been awarded £546,557 of funding to deliver projects within the priorities of Community and Place; Support for Business; and People and Skills, with Thanet District Council being the lead authority for the programme.
Recommendations Approved
Review of Local Development Scheme (Local Plan Work Programme)
From: Cabinet - Thursday, 20th February, 2025 7.00 pm - February 20, 2025
The review of the Local Development Scheme has been carried out in response to a request from the Secretary of State, in the Chief Planner letter dated 13 December 2024, that local planning authorities review their LDS, in the light of the publication of the new National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). The Council’s current Local Development Scheme was agreed in July 2024, shortly before, but in anticipation of, the proposed changes to the NPPF, and to the Plan-making process and related matters. It is the recommendation of officers that the work programme set out in the current LDS remains valid. There are two minor amendments that need to be made to the table (section 3, p7) in the published Local Development Scheme (LDS). These do not affect the list of documents identified in the LDS; the scope of the documents; or the overall timetable: 1. In relation to the Council’s Biodiversity Strategy - as a result of some delays in obtaining some critical species data, this work will now continue through the next year, so the Biodiversity Strategy should be included in the list of tasks identified for March 2025 - December 2025; and 2. In relation to the East Kent Design Code work - as a result of changing Government guidance in relation to the preparation of Design Codes, the references to different “phases” should be removed. This is likely to be a much more continuous process than previously envisaged.
