Local planning authority performance

Local planning authority performance is an important area to manage and monitor, with significant consequences where an authority is deemed to be underperfoming against set criteria (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/improving-planning-performance-criteria-for-designation). To help understand your authority's position, the following analysis presents data showing the speed and quality of decisions made over a two year period. All data is taken from https://www.gov.uk/government/statistical-data-sets/live-tables-on-planning-application-statistics, and future published data from the same source will be used to keep the analysis up to date.
