(asked on 8th July 2025) - View Source
Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
To ask His Majesty's Government whether they have any plans to introduce charges for listed building consent applications.
This question was answered on 22nd July 2025
Planning fees in England are set by the Secretary of State. Local planning authorities cannot charge a fee for listed building consent applications.
Under the government’s proposals for localised fee setting in the Planning and Infrastructure Bill, the government may continue to prescribe where a fee should not be charged for a particular type of application.
The government intends to consult on the details of localised fee setting later this year.
