Decision outlook
Day 484, past the statutory target. 65% of section 106 and planning obligations in Tunbridge Wells are decided within thirteen weeks; extensions of time are common, and the council need not decide on the day. Last seen undecided on 26 Oct 2026.
Plota live figures for section 106 and planning obligations decided across the UK in the last twelve months, from validation; too few recent section 106 and planning obligations in Tunbridge Wells to go on. Tunbridge Wells decision record →
