dc.description.abstractThis dissertaion will explore the principles of legal precedent and how they are applied in the legal decision-making process. This will take place in the framework of law and the South African legal system. The similar concerns of planning and law will be described. The nature of planning precedent and the way in which it is set and applied in principle and practice will be described. This will be compared to legal precedent and criticised accordingly. Case studies will be used to illustrate the practlcal ways in which planning precedent is created. All discussions will take place in terms of the notion of the pUblic interest as it is viewed from the perspective of the public sector planner. The growth and development of Planning and planning legislation will be traced to illustrate the public interest nature of planning. The dissertation will conclude with a set of recommendations which serve to formalise the way in which planning precedent is set and used.
