Guide to taking part in planning appeals - If you want to comment on someone else's appeal

Awarding appeal costs

At hearings or inquiries the Inspector will say that any application for costs should be made before the end of the proceedings. This can happen when one side claims it has been caused unnecessary expense in dealing with the proceedings, because the of the other side’s unreasonable behaviour.

Unless you are the appellant, this is unlikely to apply to you because if you choose to take part in an appeal you do so at your own expense. We publish a guide booklet on costs. You can visit our website for a copy or you can write to us on this page.
