Spatial Planning and Land Use Management Act, 2013
SPLUMA…… The Basics
ONE DAY WORKSHOP
The new Spatial Planning and Land Use Management Act (SPLUMA) was enacted in 2013 and certain sections
of the Act will come into operation in mid-2015. SPLUMA is a framework act for all spatial planning and land
use management legislation in South Africa. It seeks to promote consistency and uniformity in procedures
and decision-making in this field. The biggest point of departure from older planning legislation, is that
municipalities will be solely responsible for processing and dealing with land use applications and the appeals
relating thereto. All municipalities must establish Municipal
Planning Tribunals to decide on cases, with the Municipal Council
dealing with appeals on decisions made by the Municipal Planning
Tribunal.
