Planning Appeals

HC Deb 10 March 1989 vol 148 cc18-9W

Mr. Ron Davies

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will publish a table showing the number of planning appeals lodged, together with the number granted by his Department, in respect of each planning authority in Wales, for each of the last three years.

Mr. Grist
