About

This decides the local planning applications lodged with the Council. The committee functions in a ‘quasi-judicial’ way and must apply the rules of natural justice and the provisions of the Human Rights Act with the strictest impartiality. Because of this, it is governed by special protocols, largely the Local Plan. The majority of planning applications are not controversial, and officers decide these. Objectors to planning applications, and applicants where an application is objected to or recommended for refusal, may request to speak at the Local Development Committee. If you wish to speak on an application you must contact Democratic Services on 020 3373 1255 and ask to see the relevant report, which is issued five clear working days before the meeting. If you want to speak at the meeting you must give written notice by noon two days before the meeting. Speakers are usually allowed up to 5 minutes to speak, and the Committee may then ask questions. You should not lobby individual members of this committee as it could compromise their position and prevent them from taking part in the decision. For further information please contact Mehrunnisa Hussain on 020 3373 3356.
