A neighbour has submitted a full planning application containing numerous errors and omissions eg
Haven’t identified they own land outside the red line plot which accesses the highway; haven’t identified a TPO tree that is on that access; has said existing property is 3 bed (it’s 4), wrongly identified existing materials and not included all those proposed, as a start. Has said no to the majority of questions on the biodiversity checklist and they should be yes eg within 500m of a Ramsar site and said no. What can be done about LPA having validated application? Isn’t this a legal document?

You would hope the LPA would pick up on all or a lot of those errors.

Unfortunately they haven’t.
Is an application a legal document and if so are you aware of the relevant act?
I have noticed that errors etc can be grounds for refusal at committee stage but they need legislation to hook it to if that is the case.

The signed declaration on the application form is enough.
