The Welsh Government is not aware of any such appeals being made in the last 5 years. It would be irregular for a Local Planning Authority to appeal against its own decision to refuse planning permission. Planning appeals cannot be made against the grant of consent.
I am aware of the recent case of Model Farm, where the Vale of Glamorgan Council agreed to the quashing of a consent it had granted, following Judicial Review of the decision. This was not a planning appeal. The Welsh Ministers had no locus in the Judicial Review process.
