Homeowners auto-planning approvals?

[akist]

I read on the news,
"From September (2020), home owners will be allowed to build above their properties without going through the normal planning process"

So will I now be able to add another storey to my bungalow which I have been denied for over 15 years because "it does not match the street scene" ?
