Planning permission wise maybe they’re just not that stressed about it lapsing, they received the go ahead extremely quickly and mostly likely will do again even if it lapsed.
The thing with planning though, is a lot hinges on “if we build this, it’ll generate x income for us and x income for the local area. It’ll be great for us!”
When the planning lapses and they try to resubmit, the opposition comes back and says “well you’ve made a profit without it and you can’t have needed it that much” so it’s not as simple as they got permission once so they’ll get it again.
