Dear Sir,
I will send the document in three emails. This is part one and we have the usual text below for you attention.
The Inspector Training Manual is subject to regular updates, and the Manual does not constitute Government policy or guidance and does not seek to interpret Government policy. In the event that there appears to be a discrepancy between the Manual and national policy / guidance, any national policy and guidance will be conclusive.

As this document is not written for an external audience, many of the hyperlinks point to our internal systems at the Inspectorate (including links from one chapter to another), and therefore will not be accessible to those outside.

The Inspector Training Manual has not yet been fully updated in response to the revised National Planning Policy Framework
