⚠️ Data limitations on this profile. Only 5 decisions on record for this officer at Lambeth — not enough to draw firm conclusions. Take any stats below as indicative only. Of 5 decisions, 3 (60%) have outcomes that couldn't be cleanly classified as approved or refused (e.g. "decided", "advice given", non-material amendments). The approval rate below is calculated from only the 2 clearly approved/refused decisions.

Known data gaps: our Idox scrape covers Gateshead, Sunderland, and Northumberland from late 2023 onwards. Newcastle Upon Tyne data is NOT in our corpus (the council's planning portal blocks IONOS shared-hosting IPs). If you're looking for a Newcastle case officer, their decisions won't appear here even if the officer name matches.
