This report records the conclusions and recommendations of the Neighbour Notification Working Group on the detailed arrangements under which the new system of neighbour notification will operate in relation to development planning, development management and enforcement. The White Paper “Modernising the Planning System” published in June 2005 confirmed the decisions announced earlier in The White Paper “Your place, your plan” to transfer responsibility for neighbour notification in respect of planning applications from applicants to planning authorities and to extend neighbour notification to notify directly owners, occupiers and neighbours who would be directly affected by key policy changes in local development plans. “Modernising the Planning System” also confirmed the Executive’s intention to extend the new arrangements for neighbour notification to enforcement decisions. Where an appeal is made against an enforcement notice, which includes the grounds that planning permission ought to be granted for the development in question, it is proposed to make that appeal subject to neighbour notification by the planning authority.
