  - "Part 1 of the GPDO – PRIOR APPROVAL Appeal Decisions".
  - "Part 1 of the GPDO – INCIDENTAL Appeal Decisions".
• If your enquiry relates to Part 3 of the GPDO, then please choose the most relevant document from the "Other Documents" section of the above main menu. For reference, the following documents within this section contain a significant number of appeal decisions:
  - "Part 3 of the GPDO – Information about Appeal Decisions" (note: this page includes information about the other documents below).
  - "Part 3 Class M of the GPDO – Appeal Decisions".
  - "Part 3 Class O of the GPDO – Appeal Decisions".
  - "Part 3 Class Q of the GPDO – Appeal Decisions".

• If your enquiry relates to any other issues that might be covered by LDC appeal decisions (i.e. other than those that relate to Part 1 of the GPDO), then please view the following document:
  - "All Other LDC Appeal Decisions".

STEP 2: Open and search within the above document:

• A couple of the above documents are in Microsoft Excel format. This means that after you open the document, you can use the search function within Microsoft Excel (or any other spreadsheet viewing software) to find relevant appeal decisions.

Notes:

• When you're logged onto the website, there's a "magnifying glass" symbol in the top right-hand corner, and clicking on this symbol allows you to search the website. However, please note that this search function only searches the text of the pages (and posts) on the website, and not the text within the documents on the website. As such, to find appeal decisions, please use the method described on this page (i.e. by 1st identifying the document that's most relevant to your enquiry, etc).
