Data as of 2026-10-25. Ireland publishes no applicant, so Irish rows show the scheme only; UK applicants are shown only when a legal entity. Commercial and residential schemes of ten or more units are kept by rule on the description, so some schemes are missed and a few small ones slip in. A planning application is not a building contract: check the authority's record before relying on a row. Independent of the planning authorities.
