§ Sir Irvine PatnickTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list the total number of planning applications made by Sheffield city council for each of the last three years and the total number of public inquiries for each application; how many he has called in; and if he will make a statement. [4099]
§ Mr. Robert B. JonesThe Department does not collect separate information on applications made by local authorities. However, Sheffield city council has provided the following figures on applications made by it:
510W
- 1992–93 (from mid-July): 42
- 1993–94: 74
- 1994–95: 72.
No Sheffield city council applications have been called in during these three years and no public inquiries have therefore been held.
