Hi all
CABE have launched "Design and access statements: how to write, read and use
them"
http://www.cabe.org.uk/default.aspx?contentitemid=1334
This short guide shows how to write and read design and access statements.
It accompanies the government Guidance Circular 01/06 on changes to the
development control system
http://www.communities.gov.uk/index.asp?id=1500620
The CABE guide provides practical advice on getting the best from statements
to help deliver well-designed, inclusive places.
