Comment on an appeal

Anyone can comment on a planning appeal. Find the case on the appeals casework portal.

The deadline for comments is 5 weeks after the start date of the appeal, or 6 weeks after the date on the enforcement notice sent by the local planning authority (LPA).

The LPA must tell anyone who has commented on the original application (鈥榠nterested parties鈥�) that there鈥檚 an appeal.

They have to do this within 5 working days of the appeal being started by the Planning Inspectorate.
