With various councils using data from PlanningAlerts.com it seems like we are becoming the de facto standard database for planning in the UK. I wonder who we need to lobby to get 1) councils to publish data in a single format so we don't have to mess around with so many scrapers 2) money to extend the site (more councils / handle comments via the site etc)?
