Abstract
Statutory town planning in Britain can be seen as an elaborate system of development planning and implementation set in place in order to directly shape and, more often, indirectly affect the process of change and conservation of the built and natural environment. This traditional term is still used, despite being somewhat outdated. Amongst current synonyms are: urban and regional, town and country, land use and community planning.
