Planning - Data Protection Disclaimer

As part of the e-enable services, local authorities are being asked to make information from their planning and building control registers and databases available on their websites. Guidance and information about the implications for managing personal data has been produced by The Planning and Regulatory Services Online Project (PARSOL). The content has been discussed and approved by the Information Commissioner. See Making Information from Planning (Application and Enforcement) and Building Control Registers and Databases Available for further details.

In accordance with current statutory obligations, most of the documentation received will be made accessible to the public and will be processed in accordance with the Data Protection Act. We will:

only use the information for the purpose of dealing with and considering the relevant planning appeal;
only hold the information for as long as is reasonably necessary. For completed planning appeals this is usually 12 months, although we keep a copy of the Inspector's decision indefinitely. It may be that personal information could form part of the Inspector's decision.

Your Responsibilities

only provide personal information if you are happy for it to be placed in the public domain.
do not include personal information about another third party (including family members) unless you have told the individual concerned and they consent to it being supplied.
tell us as soon as possible if any of the personal information you have provided should change.
