Planning appeals in Belfast City Council
Belfast City Council is not in England, so the Planning Inspectorate does not decide its planning appeals. They are decided by Planning Appeals Commission (PAC). SiteLens holds that body’s own record, read against that nation’s rate instead.
SiteLens is still collecting the Planning Appeals Commission's record, so a rate now would reflect which parts have been collected, not how Belfast City Council fares.
Source: the Planning Appeals Commission's own published case record. Still being collected, so the counts are a floor.
