Retrospective Planning Permission – Planning enforcement notice

What Is Retrospective Planning Consent? Do I need Retrospective Planning Permission?

Retrospective Planning Permission

If building works start and planning permission is required and has not been obtained, a retrospective planning permission will be required to regularise the development. A ‘retrospective planning application’ is essentially an application that is submitted in order to obtain planning permission for the development.

An owner or developer should never rely on a retrospective planning permission application to get unauthorised development approved.  Anyone doing this is taking a considerable risk and may face formal enforcement action.
