Hi all, 

At Watford, we still have to search microfiche for historic planning information....I'm just wondering how many other councils out there also still do this or have most people digitised it now?

Thanks, Carmel

We (Mid Sussex District Council) have digitised our records from 1990 and these can be viewed by officers (and the public) from our desk top.

We haven't gone back further in time based on a cost v benefit assessment.
