Commentary from Baljit Tiwana - Service Manager
The increase in the amount of applications going through committee is due to requests from
Ward Members and when parish councils recommend a ‘refusal’ but the Development
Control recommendation would be ‘permission’ - this complies with the constitution.

Commentary from Baljit Tiwana - Service Manager
Target is incorrect, should be 20%. 2% was a % of ALL decisions, rather than just those

An investigation is planned to determine how many of the overturns result in appeals
which are then allowed.
