Sefton Metropolitan Borough Council (25 015 244)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Planning applications 25-Feb-2026
Summary: We will not investigate Miss X’s complaint about the Council’s refusal to accept a fresh planning application relating to a matter where she has previously appealed to the Planning Inspector. Notwithstanding her previous appeal to the Planning Inspector, only a court could decide if the Council’s interpretation of the law is correct regarding her fresh planning application and the previous appeal. It would therefore be reasonable for Miss X to go to court.
