If you seek permission to carry out works to your property and your application isn't decided within a set period, or you get a decision from your local council that you disagree with, you have a right to appeal.
You can appeal to the First Secretary of State, who will appoint an inspector to make a decision on your appeal.

Changes to the Appeal Process
New criteria for determining which procedure should be used for planning and enforcement appeals will be applied from 6 April 2009. For more information, please visit the Planning Inspectorate website.
You may choose one of the following ways to proceed:-
- Written representations - where the applicant (or their agent) submits the planning case in writing.
- Local hearing - where the applicant (or agent) submits the case to an appointed inspector, but conducted in fairly informal surroundings and manner.
- Inquiry - where (generally) an agent will present your case in a far more formal manner. The proceedings are silmilar to a court of law.
You can find out more about the appeals process or make an on-line planning appeal by accessing the National Planning Portal (external link):
This page holds a record of planning appeals received by Craven District Council from the Planning Inspectorate.
