Where these figures come from

Worked out from 46 applications we have read from Torfaen's own public planning register, with decisions between 15 October 2026 and 26 October 2026. Last read 6 November 2026. A rate needs at least 10 decided applications. Withdrawn and unclear outcomes are not counted, and neither are discharges of conditions, minor amendments, certificates of lawfulness or prior-approval notices, which are not decisions on a scheme. These are the applications we have read, not the council's full archive. The council's own record is the official source — its planning register. Planning data is public sector information under the Open Government Licence v3.0.
