40.4% of Householder appeals allowed

Across all years in the archive (2016–2026)

Allowed: 65Dismissed: 96Split decision: 2
Allowed 65 Dismissed 96 Split decisions 2

65 allowed and 96 dismissed (161 decided), plus 2 split decisions. That is 4.9 percentage points above the national average of 35.5%.

Only 11 Householder decisions in the last 12 months (we need 20 for a recent figure), so this covers all years.

Allowed ÷ (allowed + dismissed). Split decisions, withdrawn, invalid and undetermined appeals are left out. Based on completed records in the Appeal Scout archive, which runs a little behind today's date because decisions are added after publication.
