We are committed to the highest standard of quality information and every attempt has been made to present up to date information.

Whilst publishing on the internet all the information relating to any Planning Application, Sevenoaks District Council has taken into consideration advice circulated by the Information Commissioner. Members of the public who may be concerned about the use of their personal data are advised to visit the Information Commissioner's website.

With effect from 1 March 2009 Sevenoaks District Council will publish representations received from third parties regarding planning applications on its website. Every effort will be made to blank out personal telephone numbers, email addresses and signatures. This information will still be viewable and copies made available to the public when visits are made to the office to view the original file.

Sevenoaks District Council encourages applicants and members of the public to use the online facilities available for making Planning Applications and commenting on Planning Applications.
