Minerals Policy Statement 1: Planning and Minerals
Minerals Policy Statement 1 (MPS1) is the overarching planning policy document for all minerals in England. It provides advice and guidance to planning authorities and the minerals industry and it will ensure that the need by society and the economy for minerals is managed in an integrated way against its impact on the environment and communities.
This supercedes Minerals Planning Guidance 1: General considerations and the development plan system (MPG1) published in 1996.
