	About the Town and Country Planning Association (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		TCPA began life as the Victorian Town Planning and Parks Association, which was formed in Melbourne in 1914, with Dr J. (later Sir James) Barrett the first president.
		Its objects were "to give the town a bit of the country, and the country a bit of the town, to secure better housing, to protect existing parks, to safeguard native animals and plants and erect memorials to explorers".
		The Association adopted a new constitution and was incorporated in 1994.

	Comments on the scoping of the RCEP's Environmental Planning Study
		A new vision of planning is needed which builds on the radical past and the best of current practice to create new principles which are based on new ways of understanding and debating change: one which provides for a system which is able to deliver change for the better.
		Planning must be reinvented so that its principles and systems focus on increasing human well being and environmental benefits, and enable people to participate in the decisions which affect their lives.
		Planning in the future must be based on explicit and agreed values so that the nature of the changes that are made to our towns and cities, and the way that decisions are made, lead to changes for the better.

	Town and country planning in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Town and Country Planning is the land use planning system by which the British government seeks to maintain a balance between economic development and environmental quality in the United Kingdom.
		The constituent countries of the UK have their own distinct planning systems and substantial responsibility for town and country planning has been devolved to the Welsh Assembly, the Scottish Parliament and the Northern Ireland administration.
		Associated with this principal Act were three further Acts related to planning, namely, The Planning (Listed buildings and conservation areas) Act 1990, the Planning (Hazardous substances) Act 1990, and the Planning (Consequential provisions) Act 1990.

	House of Commons - Environment, Transport and Regional Affairs - Memoranda
		The TCPA campaigns for the reform of the UK's planning system to make it more responsive to people's needs and for planning which promotes development that is sustainable in terms of the social, economic and environmental well-being of all.
		The TCPA believes that the "threat" to the countryside from people wanting houses with gardens is greatly exaggerated, the extent of urbanised land being likely to increase by only two or three percentage points even if most of the housing needed over the next quarter century were to be built at generously low densities.
		The Town and Country Planning Association is concerned that this draft PPG, despite its protestations to the contrary, does not reflect a proper determination that everyone should be housed to a level which at least reflects their reasonable aspirations.

	Press Release: Planning world unites to inject democracy into bill
		The Bill envisages a two-tier structure with planning responsibility held by local (district or unitary) councils, and a wider strategic planning role resting with, as yet unelected, regional assemblies.
		The LGA supports the government’s stated intention to create a clearer national planning framework and the ambition for greater community engagement, but is concerned about the loss of democratic accountability both over some planning application decisions and particularly over the reduction in the role of county councils.
		Instead, we consider that the introduction of action plans, as part of the LDF document, would be a better mechanism for encouraging and effectively managing the growth and high quality development of businesses.
