Background
The Validation Checklist is part of a new Government initiative to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the planning system.
The Government is encouraging Local Planning Authorities (LPA), such as Eastbourne Borough Council to produce ‘Local Lists’ of information requirements that must be taken into account by applicants preparing and submitting planning applications to ensure the validity of their application.
The purpose of the validation checklist is to ensure that the application contains sufficient information to enable the LPA to consult on the proposals and to proceed to determine the application.
The ‘Local List’ will be used in association with national requirements to assess whether a planning application is valid; to ensure that all the necessary information, relating to the type of development has been submitted, thus enabling the LPA to make an informed decision.
