Abstract
Provides guidance on the requirement for planning authorities to have a scheme to delegate decisions on planning applications for local development to appointed officers for decision (instead of Planning Committees deciding smaller scale proposals). Where applications for local development are so delegated, the applicant can seek a local review by the planning authority of the appointed officer's decision or failure to take a decision. This circular describes the requirements on seeking a review, the information to be provided, the timescales for seeking a review and the procedures for considering a review.
History
