Local list of validation requirements consultation (closed)

Consultation to update the local list of validation requirements.

This consultation ran from 8 March to 2 April 2024 and is now closed. Thank you to everyone who took part.

See the planning validation checklist page for the final approved list.


What we consulted on

The National Planning Policy Framework sets out that local planning authorities must publish a local validation list for planning applications and review it frequently.

We have updated our list (published in July 2021) and are carrying out this consultation because:

  • a significant amount of time has passed since the previous consultation
  • we have made a number of changes

The changes we have made largely reflect changing policy, nationally and in London.
