WQ.423/2019
WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT BY DEPUTY M.R. HIGGINS OF ST. HELIER
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 8th OCTOBER 2019
Question
Further to the response to Written Question 366/2019, will the Minister advise members on how many occasions, if any, consideration by Planning Officers of a revised proposal that had previously been considered by the Planning Committee have led to a reversal of the Committee's initial decision, providing the number for each year over the last five years; and will he give in each such case the detailed reason for the Committee's decision, the detailed reasons for the Officers' reversal of the decision and the time interval between the Committee's decision and the Officers' decisions?
Answer
Planning officers do not hold information in the manner sought by the question. As part of the current data retention schedules, only one year of Planning Committee agendas is retained.
For this single year, the information has been collated and is shown in the table below.
Further information would need to be obtained by comparing the agendas of the Planning Committee for the previous 4 years, held at Jersey Archive, with subsequent decisions listed on the Planning Register at www.gov.je/planning
Although not specifically stated, the question has been interpreted to identify occasions where a previous refusal by the Planning Committee has been followed by an approval by the department, under delegated powers, on a subsequent application.
App ref and date of Committee refusal | Address | Brief description of proposal | Reason for Planning Committee refusal | New app ref and date of department approval | Brief description of proposal | Reason for department approval. |
