Certificate of immunity

Research

These are the questions we answer during the Research stage.

Answering them wil help us learn more about the Certificate of immunity consideration, determine if a data standard is required and whether we know enough to move on to the next stage.

  • Do we understand the lifecycle of a Certificate of immunity?

    Yes

    • Document a stage of the high-level lifecycle of a Certificate of immunity

  • Do we understand how the data is created/produced?

    We do not know how HE produces the data, but our expectation would be that they:

    • used the information contained in the application to place a point
    • used OS basemap data to help accurately produce the polygons

  • Where will or should the data be used?

    COI data will be used by LPAs to inform the completion of local plans, as a COI inhibits the LPA from applying for a property to get listed; and homeowners (both prospective and current) to assess the viability of renovation / development.

    • Listed buildings
    • Building preservation notices
