Planning Permission
(asked on 28th January 2015) - View Source
Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, what guidance his Department issues to local authorities on ensuring that applications for planning consent make clear who the developer is.
This question was answered on 2nd February 2015
The Government specifies the information that must be contained on planning application forms; this information includes the name of the applicant. Information about the applicant is not normally a material consideration in the determination of planning applications because planning permission runs with the land and is not awarded to individuals.
