Fire statement required from 1 August 2021

There are new regulations around planning applications for high rise accommodation, known as 'Planning Gateway One'

From 1 August 2021, you may need to submit a fire statement with your planning application for certain works.

For information about when a fire statement is required, including a fire statement template, see: GOV.UK: Fire safety and high-rise residential buildings (from 1 August 2021)

There is no fee payable for listed building consent or applications for planning permission for relevant demolition in a conservation area.

However, if you are also applying for planning permission to carry out new development at the same time you will need to pay a fee.  You can work this out using the Planning Portal Fees Guide.

Please note that from the 17 January 2018, the Government have removed the fee exemption for planning applications which have been made, due to the removal of permitted development rights by planning condition or by an Article 4 direction.

You can submit planning applications directly to us by email or post. Or, you can submit planning applications using the Planning Portal website.
