Percentage of approved greenbelt planning applications

Response to this request is long overdue. By law, under all circumstances, Planning Inspectorate should have responded by now (details). You can complain by requesting an internal review.

Dear Ms Harris,

We are looking for the answer to the following question: of the green belt planning applications called in by the secretary of state, what % is approved? A figure for the period post NPPF would be useful.

Kind Regards

Sally Furminger

Dear Enquiries,

Many thanks for confirming your receipt of my request. Seeing as these are along similar lines, two further questions have cropped up that I hoped you might also be able to respond to. Again, figures for the period post NPPF would be useful:

1. What is the total number of planning applications that are referred? Of these, how many are in the green belt? Of these in the green belt, what percentage are approved and refused?

2. Of the total number of planning applications in the Green Belt, what proportion of them are called in? And of these what percentage is approved?

Kind regards

sally
