Appeal a planning decision

You can appeal a planning decision if you disagree with it, or we did not issue the decision within the specified timeframe.

Before you appeal, you should contact us so that we can explain why we made that decision.

The Planning Inspectorate deals with all appeals, and you need to lodge your appeal with them.
