Planning appeals in Carmarthenshire County Council

Carmarthenshire County Council is not in England, so the Planning Inspectorate does not decide its planning appeals. They are decided by Planning and Environment Decisions Wales (PEDW). SiteLens holds that body’s own record, shown below. It is not comparable with the Inspectorate’s England figures, which are decided under different legislation, so it is read against that nation’s rate instead.

SiteLens is still collecting PEDW's record, and a rate taken part-way through would reflect which parts have been collected rather than how Carmarthenshire County Council fares. The counts above are what is held so far and will rise. The counts above are published either way.

Source: PEDW, read from its own published case record. Still being collected, so the counts are a floor and will rise.

Money behind development in Carmarthenshire County Council

Developer contributions at Carmarthenshire County Council

Carmarthenshire County Council collects contributions from developers under planning obligations, but we do not yet hold its register in a form we can publish figures from. Only a minority of authorities publish one we can read, and this is not one of them, so we show nothing rather than a figure we cannot stand behind.

About Carmarthenshire County Council

Carmarthenshire County Council is a local planning authority responsible for processing planning applications within its area. Applications are submitted through the council's planning portal and cover a wide range of development types, from householder extensions and change of use to large-scale residential and commercial schemes.

SiteLens tracks the Carmarthenshire County Council planning register daily and enriches every new application automatically. Each is AI-classified by category and trade, given an estimated value band and a plain-English project brief, mapped, and checked against constraint flags like flood zones, conservation areas and green belt. Where an application names an agent, SiteLens shows the firm and matches companies to Companies House. Pro adds the applicant's name, the directors and company health behind each match, and the agent's direct email and phone where the council or firm publishes them, so you know who to speak to about the scheme.

You can also browse the council's own planning register on the official Carmarthenshire County Council planning portal.
