Can I comment on all applications?
Some applications do not require statutory consultation or publicity and therefore, whilst visible on the public register online, they will not be open to formal consultation. This applies to the following application types:
- Lawful Development Certificates (proposed)
- Prior notifications of any kind (NB these are different to prior approvals)
- Statutory notifications from utility companies – e.g. overhead lines, Network Rail,
- Discharge of conditions
- Non-material amendments
- Scoping and screening opinions
- Pre-app enquiries
