Is planning permission needed for a variation from your council?
Hi there,
Has anyone had the Care Inspectorate grant a variation? I am about to submit a variation form requesting to have one extra child a day. The variation form asks have I contacted my council planning department about my request for the variation. Did anyone else who has submitted a variation contact their council's planning department about it?
I remember hearing a childminder local to me saying something about having to pay £400 to the council for her variation. I think she possibly meant the council planning department charged her this £400 rather than the actual variation.
Any advice about how everyone else got on would be greatly welcome. Thanks.
