# Officer Planning Report

## Planning Report And Recommendations [Table omitted in markdown export] ### Considerations [Table omitted in markdown export] ### Written Representations ### Consultations [Table omitted in markdown export]

### Officer's Report

The application site is seeking Registered Building consent to make alterations to the existing staircase within the Council Chamber. The applicants have amended the application in light of comments from the Conservation Area. The Conservation Officer is content with the application. It should be noted that the amendment to the application overcome the concerns of the Isle of Man Victorian Society regarding the handrail.

I therefore recommend that Registered Building Consent be granted subject to conditions.

#### Party Status

The Department of Transport, Manx National Heritage and the local authority are, by virtue of The Registered Building Regulations 2005, paragraph 8 (5) (c), (d) and (e), considered "interested persons" and as such should be afforded party status.

The Isle of Man Victorian Society do not sufficient interest in the site and therefore should not be afforded party status in this instance.
