Planning Inspectorate

The Planning Inspectorate for England and Wales (Yr Arolygiaeth Gynllunio) is an executive agency of the Department for Communities and Local Government of the United Kingdom Government. It is responsible for the determination (deciding) of planning and enforcement appeals and public examination of local development plans. It also deals with a wide variety of other planning-related casework including Listed Building consent appeals, advertisement appeals - about, for instance, shop signs and advertisement displays on hoardings, bus shelters etc, and cases on which Inspectors report to the Secretary of State concerned on planning applications requiring ministerial approval.

The Scottish Executive Inquiry Reporters' Unit in Scotland and the Planning Appeals Commission in Northern Ireland are the equivalent institutions for those countries.
