Comment from Colin Smale
Hi Andrew, 2 questions: Firstly you seem to have created two copies of this relation, the other one here https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/80156012#map=14/51.5405/-0.0166
Secondly, I don't think making this an admin boundary is appropriate, as there is no local government with an elected representation. It's a quango whose leadership is appointed (in this case by the Mayor). -

It's an interesting one; LLDC's remit is to be the planning authority for some of the territory of existing (admin_level=8) London Boroughs (including Hackney and Newham). They are not a Civil Parish, which is what level 10 should be used for; but on the other hand there is no accepted way to tag this sort of thing.
I expect Way 766721111 (Old Oak Park Royal Development Corporation) is similar.

Comment from Colin Smale
Yeah, but the fact remains they are not a layer of local government. The neighbourhood planning areas are only loosely based on parishes, and don't replace CPs or introduce any layer of government into unparished areas. They don't change who the planning authority is. I wouldn't expect to see a boundary=administrative springing up for every case where government draws a line, like CCGs or Fire and Rescue. IMHO they are different types of boundary, just like the neighbourhood plan areas and development corporations should be. They don't fit into the (more or less) neat hierarchy of admin areas and should have their own top-level boundary type, possibly boundary=town_planning or boundary=zoning.

I'm new to this so will adjust as required. The fact is that both London Legacy and Old Oak are planning authorities although not part of local government structure. In this respect they are like national parks. boundary=town_planning sounds appropriate.

You state your source as map on website, please could you provide a bit more detail. Also what license is this data released under?
Cheers Phil

Comment from Andrew Speakman
The boundary map is a PDF openly available on the LLDC website - with no indication of licensing (https://www.queenelizabetholympicpark.co.uk/planning-authority/planning-area-map). I am new to this so please advise whether this has implications.

The terms and conditions do say 'We are often willing to share this content but please check with us first before you use anything from this website.'
You do need to check whether they are prepared to license it for inclusion in OpenStreetMap and not simply for personal use.Cheers Phil
