The language of Planning is full of jargon - terms used by the experts which make it difficult for members of the public to understand what is meant. The South West Planning Aid service has produced a 'jargon buster' which we hope will help you understand a range of commonly used technical terms. If you find the jargon buster useful or have constructive comments to improve it please let the South West team know: email swco@planningaid.rtpi.org.uk
