Planning

Planning permission is needed for most building works, engineering works and use of land. This is concerned with what a building looks like and its use. It is distinct from Building Regulations, which set standards for design and construction.

Planning applications are assessed against Government Planning Guidance and policies in the relevant Local Authority Local Plan and Local Development Framework.

Councils work with the Planning Portal to provide a range of up to date planning information.
