Changes are being made to the planning system that will impact planning appeals and large housing applications. Appeals will rely only on the original application information, so comments must be made at the application stage. For large developments (150+ homes), the Secretary of State may step in if refusal is considered. So, if you have any views on planning applications in your area, make sure you comment when the application is first published and find out more.
