Barnet Validation Requirements for Planning Applications consultation

Overview

Planning applications are submitted on a standard application form and applicants are required to submit information for the validation / assessment of their planning applications. Some of this information is a national requirement for all applications. Councils are also able to request more information for some applications, and these are known as the ‘local requirements’’.

The information you will need to submit will depend on the type of application you are making and the nature and scale of the development proposals.

Barnet has reviewed its current local list, which was published in July 2015.

We have reviewed the Barnet local information requirements in light of;

• changes introduced by the government
• changes to local policies
• requirements for different types of applications to make sure that the information requested is necessary for a particular scale and type of development.

Each of the individual information requirements has also been reviewed and amended, where necessary, to reflect changes in policy / guidance since it was first adopted.

The changes we propose to make can be seen in the consultation document. We will take your views, opinions and feedback on board when producing the updated List of Validation Requirements.

Give us your views

We look forward to receiving your written views on the List of Validation Requirements.
