Planning enforcement

If you think someone is carrying out work without the required permission, or not keeping to the conditions of their planning agreement, you can fill out our planning enforcement complaint form.

When it is clear that regulations have been breached, we will contact the person responsible and look to resolve the situation. See our Planning Enforcement Policy (PDF) [248KB] (opens new window)  for more information.

For further information on planning enforcement, please follow this link to the Planning Portal (opens new window).

Please read the planning enforcement privacy notice alongside the enforcement policy showing how your data will be handled.
