The Planning and Building Control Public Access Service allows you to view details of planning and building control applications and supporting documents online, and make comments if you wish. We endeavour to publish all relevant application details, but should you find that a document is missing, it can be viewed at our Ty Blaen office. If you notice any missing information please let us know so that we can rectify immediately. The applications and documents may still be viewed in person at the Ty Blaen Office at New Inn.
