Expert Witness

Under either section 77 or section 78 of the Town & Country Planning Act an applicant has the right to appeal the decision should their planning application be refused by the local planning authority or called in by the Secretary of State, via three forms of appeal, each of which is heard by the Planning Inspectorate; written representations, a local hearing or public inquiry.

At Ayen Consulting, we can prepare documents and evidence at planning appeal hearings and public inquiries.

  • Andrew Guttridge - Bildeston Parish Council, Suffolk, UK

    'Excellent and very professional service provided by Ayen Consulting to support our Local Plan objection. Efficient data collection with robust analysis and clear presentation in a comprehensive technical report; all completed within a very tight timescale.'

  • Andy Stopps - Wingerworth Junior Sports Association, North East Derbyshire, UK

    'Our Grassroots football club have made an application to build a clubhouse to improve facilities. The project has some complicated objections around car parking and traffic management. As a club we had no experience or knowledge with regards to this and needed a consultant to work with. I approached Kevin and from the outset it felt like he understood our needs, talked us through the process, created a high quality piece of work and met all deadlines asked of him. We are grateful for all of the work and support given to us and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ayen Consulting for this kind of work.'

  • James Barker - Colchester, Essex, UK
