The progressive decentralisation of regional planning and the strong reduction in the spending capacities of central government, raises important questions on the role of supra-local actors in urban redevelopment practices. This paper demonstrates that a possible value added from supra-local planning is generated by the use of governance tools which act on the organisation and activation of complex decision-making processes. Given recent institutional developments in Holland, the country is treated as a case study to understand the change in the role of the Ministry of Planning, Housing Policies and the Environment in the initiation and implementation of strategic regional planning intervention.

Keywords: Strategic interventions; governance tools; supralocal planning
