The award-winning Planning team extracts the latest key planning news from the blizzard of new information in Room 106, the vault where all new planning information is gathered.

In this bonus edition we discuss:

• Reports that the long-awaited introduction of a requirement for developers to improve a site’s biodiversity when they get planning has been delayed again.
• A damning review of a council’s planning service by a local government body.
• Another local authority that has no planning enforcement officers left, yet faces 300 cases per year.

PLUS, we round up the other most important news stories of the past seven days.
