What happens while it is decided

This application is with Wigan for determination, against a statutory target of thirteen weeks. Over the last year Wigan's median decision took 77 days. More in our guide to how long planning decisions take.

About reserved matters applications

A reserved matters application fills in the detail held back from an earlier outline permission, judged against that permission rather than the principle of development. More in our guide to planning application types.
