What this refusal means

Westminster refused this application for the reasons on the decision notice; only the applicant can appeal, and refused schemes often return in revised form. More in our guide to what happens after a planning decision.

About advertisement consent applications

Advertisement consent is judged on two things only: amenity and public safety, not competition or other planning considerations. More in our guide to planning application types.
