Statutory Register - Decision Notice

Northumberland National Park Authority issues formal decision notices in respect of applications made to us in our role as local planning authority for the area. These state whether permission is granted or refused and can be viewed online.

All applicants have a right of appeal against a refusal or conditions imposed that they do not agree with. Notes on how to appeal any decision are included on the decision notice. There is no third party right of appeal. Unless otherwise stated, development can begin at any time within 5 years of the date of the permission.  In many cases, there will be requirements that have to be met before works start. These will require other formal approvals of the National Park Authority.

Often other approvals are needed before work can start, e.g. covenants on a property or Building Regulations. If these approvals introduce significant changes to a scheme a new planning permission may be needed.  You are advised to talk through these requirements with the respective bodies.
