Decisions by the Planning Inspectorate - Public forum - Planning Advisory Service (PAS)

On issue of developers being able to go directly to PINS to make a decision. I assume if PINS refuse an application that there will be no right of appeal. I recall when the human rights act was first being introduced the profession and lawyers where all worried that to meet the requirement of the act would introduce a third party right of appeal with the substantial increase in workload for both parties. However as recall this issue was resolved because it was considerd that third parties had a right to object to an independent body namely the planning inspectorate thus to the relief of most of the profession this acted as a get out clause. I was wondering if this get out clause to Human Rights would still apply when there is not ability to appeal to an independent body.
