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 prior approval applications
How this application type works
Prior approval applications arise where permitted development rights already grant the principle of the work, such as larger home extensions, changes of use to housing or agricultural buildings. The council may only consider the specific matters set out in the rules, for example transport, flooding or appearance, and in many classes the work may proceed if the council does not respond within the deadline, commonly 56 days.

88% historically approved · decision due ~16 Nov
Extension of existing permitted timescale for cessation of mineral extraction, infill and restoration operations by 10 years (until 27/9/2037) to allow renewed extraction of sand and gravel deposits in this area (Area A, north) and removal of the remaining existing woodland on the application site, followed by infill and restoration phases (Note: This effectively includes the variation of condition no. 2 attached to planning permission 97/0535 (Now PL/1997/00168/RM) (As extended by the 2012 ROMP up to September 2027); however, it appears inadequate to cover the scale of new extraction now proposed purely on the basis of varying a condition on a permission that is now somewhat out of date in terms of its original approved drawings, documents, and the wording of many of its conditions: see paragraphs 1.1 to 1.7 of the Minerals Development Statement for further discussion of this issue).
