This book is part of Law Brief's new series of essential guides for legal practitioners covering what you need to know about how various aspects of UK law have been affected by the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic.

The impact of the Covid-19 virus has left us living in uncertain times. For many life has changed and will never be the same again. The question that is now uppermost is how we will react to the changes that have been forced upon us. It is not necessarily all doom and gloom as there will be opportunities as well as challenges going forward.

Planning cannot exist in isolation as all of the actions that are taken will have an impact on how we look at planning in the future. A lot of employees will be wondering why they should continue to endure the daily commute whilst a lot of employers will be looking at potential cost savings in relation to expensive bricks and mortar. Homeowners will be asking themselves whether the lack of garden or other amenities is something they are prepared to endure. All of that will impact on how we plan for the future.

This book looks forward at some of the planning issues that we will have to confront as a society. We consider the short, medium and long-term implications of the impact of the virus on what planning will have to do to meet the new challenges.
