PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(3 December 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what criteria she uses to call in planning applications before they are discussed by local councillors.

Asked by:
Helen Whately (Conservative)

Answer

Call-in decisions are inherently about process and not the merits of any given planning application.

I refer the hon Member to the Written Ministerial Statement made on 26 March 2019 (HCWS1452), and on 26 October 2012, columns 71WS-72WS.

All relevant matters relating to the Highsted Park development will now be considered via a public inquiry.
