From time to time, the Planning Inspectorate seeks to procure the services of fee-paid Inspectors, primarily to conduct Section 78 appeals. Those successful in the procurement process are registered as non-salaried Inspectors (NSI) and then offered contracts on a case-by-case basis.

Any future competitions will be advertised on this website and in appropriate publications.

Should you require any general information about the work of an NSI, please contact the NSI Contract Management Unit either by e-mail:
NSIContractmanagement@pins.gsi.gov.uk, or by telephone: 0117 372 8378.

We regret that we are unable to retain details of anyone who expresses an interest in becoming a non-salaried Inspector.
