The Planning Dashboard gives a good snapshot, but it doesn't show whether individual LPA's are improving or worsening in their speed of deciding planning applications. You can see their direction of travel in the 3 tables below:
Table 1. Major planning applications
Table 2. Non-major planning applications (less than 10 dwellings or less than 1,000sqm of non-residential floorspace)
Table 3. Householder planning applications (for the purpose of these figures, excluded from the non-major category above)
Use CTR+F to find your local planning authority in each of the 3 tables. The % decided within 13 or 8 weeks ignores all 'extensions of time' performance agreements, giving the percentage genuinely decided within the statutory timescales.
