The D D A does not prescribe w hich
option should be considered first, but
the C ode of Practice recom m endsthat service providers should start by
considering w hether the physical
feature w hich creates a barrier can
be rem oved or altered.This
represents an inclusiveapproach to
access, w hich m akes services available
to everyone in the sam e w ay.
Dialogue and discussion
English H eritage encourages early
pre-application consultation w ith
local authority conservation, building
control, access and archaeology staff,
w ith local access groups and, in the
case of m ajor buildings undergoingpotentially substantial alterations, w ith
its ow n staff. In m any planning
departm ents, applications involving
access provisions are review ed by an
access officer w ho should be able to
advise on the suitability of the
proposed access solutions, or
recom m end alternative sources of
advice and guidance. C ontinuousdialogue and effective feedback from
users can ease the handling of
applications for listed building and
other consents, and help to achieve
solutions w hich satisfactorily com bine
