Statutory<\/h4>\n

Statutory refers to organisations and bodies that are defined by a formal law or a statute. These bodies are entities shaped by an Act of Parliament and set up by the Government to consider the data and make judgments in some area of activity.<\/p>\n

Non-statutory<\/h4>\n

Non-statutory is essentially another term for common law. Therefore such bodies are formed by executive resolution or action, which means that they are formed only by the Government\u2019s action.<\/p>\n

Statutory consultee<\/h4>\n

Statutory consultees <\/strong>are professional bodies that Local Planning Authorities<\/a> are required by law to consult prior to a decision being made on a planning application and these bodies hold the power to affect the result of the application.<\/p>\n

Non-statutory consultee<\/h4>\n

Planning policy reasons sometimes require the engagement of other consultees who \u2013 whilst not designated in law \u2013 are likely to have an interest in a proposed development. These are considered to be non-stautory consultees.<\/p>\n
