The planning statistics below, are worth noting, initially most people switch off or would rather jump off a mountain rather than trying to digest these figures.
However they do provide a great insight into the UK Planning System both in term of current application by year.
OK simply put, we average around 450 Planning Applications between April - June. i.e. Quarterly. The point which of interest, is the percentage approval rate of 90%
That tells me two things, number one people are either using professional planners who understand how to achieve planning or that the planning regime is very relaxed in the UK. I assure the latter is not the case.

Notes:
1. Includes metropolitan and non-metropolitan districts, unitary authorities, national park authorities and urban development corporations. Figures exclude ‘county matters’ applications and decisions shown in Tables P139 onward.
2. Includes certificates of lawful development and notifications until 31 March 2014, but excludes them with effect from 1 April 2014.
3. The denominator used in the calculation of the figures in this column excludes applications which can neither be granted nor refused, such as notifications.
4. Figures are rounded and the components do not necessarily sum to the independently rounded totals. Percentages are calculated using unrounded figures.
5. From April 2008 to March 2013: data on PPAs only were collected, for all major developments and other developments except change of use; householder developments and advertisements: EIAs and extensions of time were not recorded.
6. From April 2013 to March 2014: data on PPAs, EoTs and EIAs were collected for all major developments and other developments except minerals processing, change of use, householder developments and advertisements.
7. From April 2014: data on PPAs, EoTs and EIAs were collected for all major, minor and other developments.
8. From April 2013, the percentages are calculated for the number of decisions made within the specified time period or within the agreed time, for cases with a planning performance agreement, environmental impact assessment or agreed extension time, although such information for minor developments and some other developments has been collected only since April 2014.
