[Topic/Question] What development is still considered by Local Authorities? [Answer] 
Developments that do not meet the thresholds laid down in part 3 of the Planning Act 2008 will continue to be considered by the existing process, for example under the Town and Country Planning Act. The Planning Inspectorate has no role in considering these applications.
