A First party appeal against a decision to refuse planning permission by the planning authority,
A First party appeal against conditions imposed on a planning permission by the planning authority e.g. terms of Development Contributions,
A Third party appeal against a decision by the planning authority to grant planning permission,
A Third party appeal against conditions imposed by the planning authority.

Other Appeal work can include responses to appeals, referrals of declarations (exempted development), representation at oral hearings and Strategic Infrastructure negotiations with Board officials.
