What a grant of permission means
The process from here
Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.
Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.
About full applications applications
How this application type works
A full application seeks permission for a complete, detailed proposal in one go: siting, design, access and landscaping are all fixed at this stage. It is the standard route for new buildings, conversions and changes of use. The statutory target is eight weeks for smaller schemes and thirteen weeks for major development, though complex cases often take longer by agreement.

21 Mallard Walk Prestonpans East Lothian EH32 9GD
I am seeking to change the opening size on my front ground elevation window. The materials to be used will be the same as currently in place - namely white UPVC. The window will continue to open outwards as it does at present. External render will match that in place at present. The window opening would reduce in size as per the attached plans. Note when reviewing the photographs from the outside, it is the bottom, right window that we are looking to change. The current position of the top and width of the window will not change, however, the bottom will decrease in size, per the proposed drawing
