Burnham to unveil mayoral planning powers
Proposals extending call-in and upfront permission powers to England's devolved mayors are set to be unveiled in the week beginning 24 August 2026.
Mayor of London granted emergency call-in powers
Sir Sadiq Khan received planning call-in powers earlier in 2026 as an emergency measure to unblock dozens of stalled sites and accelerate affordable housing delivery in the capital.
The reform introduces statutory thresholds — 150 homes, 15,000 sq m and 30m — at which mayors can call in planning decisions and grant upfront permission. Planning lawyers will scrutinise how mayoral direction interacts with adopted local plans, national policy and the ministerial backstop, with judicial review exposure a key risk.

Andy Burnham's proposal would give England's devolved mayors statutory-style call-in and upfront permission powers over developments above 150 homes, 15,000 sqm or 30 metres, remaking the relationship between mayors and local planning authorities. Legal practitioners will focus on the 'in line with planning rules, local plans and national policy' guardrail, the statutory vehicle, and the judicial review exposure of mayoral decisions.
