Wandsworth introduces new standard planning application forms
From 3 October 2007 Wandsworth will be using the new national standard planning application forms – 1APP.  
The new forms will have a number of advantages for planning applicants and agents:

• the same forms will be used by every local authority avoiding confusion about what is required;
• when you need two planning consents at the same time (e.g. planning permission and listed building consent, you will only have to complete one form; and
• an improved online forms service will be available, including help to make sure you submit the correct form.

We encourage you to submit your application online to help speed up the process and save on printing costs, however you will still be able to submit your application on paper if you wish. Copies of the forms will be available online from 3 October, or you can request paper copies of the forms from the Planning Service on 020 8871 6636/7.

We will continue to accept applications on our old forms until the date mandated by the Government – expected to be 6 April 2008.
