While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance the Cabinet Office does not hold the information that you have requested. The Cabinet Office does not hold a list detailing Planning Appeal decisions that have referenced or been influenced by the Draft Planning Policy Statement – Planning and the Economy. The Cabinet Office would have create such a list by reviewing the information held for over 700 Planning Appeals to create such a list.
