Retention planning permission in Ireland — refused 27% of the time, against 7% for extensionsOne in six Dublin applications is for retention, and 27% of retention decisions in the two years to September 2026 were refusals. When you need it, the treble fee, the seven-year rule and the sale-time problem.
Further information requests on a planning application — 21% of Dublin files, six months to reply21% of applications received by Dublin councils in the year to September 2026 drew a further information request. What the council is asking, the six-month deadline, what "significant" FI triggers, and what it does to neighbours' rights.
An Bord Pleanála appeal, now An Coimisiún Pleanála — four weeks, €220, and a 25% reversal rateThe Commission reversed the council in 25% of the 1,195 Dublin-area appeals decided in the two years to September 2026. Who can appeal, the four weeks, the €220 fee, why 240 appeals a year fail on procedure, and the odds by direction.
Certificate of compliance with planning permission in Ireland17% of GDA planning applications are retention. Who can sign a certificate of compliance with planning permission, what the RIAI / Law Society opinion covers, the gaps it leaves.
