Planners are set to come forward with plans to aid with regeneration required in response to four-nights of rioting throughout the UK. Stating that renewal efforts should be an opportunity for the communities that have suffered recently, Regeneration chief executive Jackie Sadek said "it’s not just about the built environment, it’s about the people in the communities, they are at the heart of regeneration".

She urged policy makers to avoid knee-jerk reactions, and instead to encourage private investors to engage with local people.
