What happens while it is decided

This application is with Sefton for determination, against a statutory target of eight weeks. Over the last year Sefton's median decision took 60 days. More in our guide to how long planning decisions take.

About amendment applications

An amendment application makes limited changes to a permission that already exists; anything beyond modest adjustment needs a fresh application. More in our guide to planning application types.
