London Borough of Haringey

Planning committee.

Haringey's planning committee decides the applications officers don't settle under delegation. It approved 100% of the 16 decisions that reached it, hears just 0.5% of decisions to committee, and of the 18 refusals traced in recent minutes, 1 was overturned at appeal. Where it acts, and on what, is below.[1]

Haringey's decision-notice parsing is limited coverage right now, so refusal citations aren't reliable enough to publish as a table — an estimate would be worse than nothing.

The members — votes recorded

Member by member: the planning-committee votes recorded against each councillor in the published minutes, and how they lean.[2] How often each votes with the officer recommendation needs the officer rec on every item — not yet loaded, so it isn't shown.

Meeting minutes

The committee figures on this page are derived from Haringey's published decision notices and committee minutes. Agendas, full minutes and webcasts are published on the council's own democracy website — the source of truth for every meeting.
