Shapps announces 'Right to Build' proposals

The coalition Government has launched its Right to Build policy, allowing rural area communities to build homes, shops and other local amenities without planning permission.
Early indications suggest the detail will be published in the Localism Bill (set for Autumn 2011).
We may well see an unrealistically high threshold for voting through planning proposals, or another caveat that effectively prevents the populist thrust of the announcemens translating into effective action.
