The Planning Portal was established by UK government in 2002 to allow planning applications in England and Wales to be processed electronically. It later added information content for Building Regulations (though not their submission) and the ability to purchase site location plans.
The portal provides a conduit between those submitting planning applications (such as architects) and the local planning authority who will determine the application.[1]
The business was privatised in March 2015 and is now a joint venture between Government and a private company, Terraquest.
