Who deals with my complaint?

We are responsible for planning enforcement within the National Park and have agreed unique partnerships with the Local Authorities operating within the National Park boundaries.

For eight of these authorities the SDNPA deals directly with the planning enforcement issues.

The other five authorities deal with planning enforcement issues on our behalf.

Complaints for which can be made using the on-line form below.
