An application for such consent must be made on the appropriate form. Where the works proposed areinternalonly the application, its supporting plans and three complete copies must be provided to the Department (one copy is conveyed to Manx National Heritage).

Where the works proposed are external, whilst four copies the application form is required only three copies of the supporting plans and documents are needed, along with a separate and independent application for planning approval and its supporting plans. In this instance, only a copy of the Registered Building Consent application form will be conveyed to the Local Authority along with their planning application copy.
