Abstract
This chapter shows how planning practice in the UK now occurs within a context of devolution and multi-level governance, which is shaped by territorial politics. The creation of devolved administrations in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, the Greater London Mayor and Assembly and emerging city-region arrangements in other parts of England have created new planning jurisdictions. These arrangements have initiated a new wave of spatial planning in the UK, with some diversity of approaches and outcomes, but also some common themes. In the main, England lacks a meaningful framework for spatial planning. The chapter suggest that devolution holds the promise of policies better matched to local conditions, but also widening disparities between places. Frameworks for reconciling the different planning priorities of different jurisidictions are notable by their absence.
