Planning appeals in Oxfordshire County Council

An allowed appeal is one the council lost. Some kinds of appeal succeed far more often than others, so Oxfordshire County Council is compared with the national rate for its own mix.

Oxfordshire County Council, raw rate

85.7%

of judged appeals were allowed

Expected for this mix of appeals

45.2%

national rates applied to this caseload

40.5 percentage points above expected. Oxfordshire County Council's decisions are overturned more often than the national record predicts.

62 appeals counted, 7 judged either way (6 allowed, 1 dismissed), 55 judged neither way. These are appeals decided 2017-06 to 2026-05.

How we calculate this

Judged means allowed or dismissed. Withdrawn, invalid, split and unrecorded appeals are counted but never treated as appeals the council won. Expected applies the national rate for each appeal type to this council's own caseload. National rates by type are in The State of UK Planning.
