Re:Scraping 241 UK council planning portals – 2.6M decisions... by PhilipV on Wednesday April 29, 2026 @01:01PM (#47951182)
I would say that you should consider checking whether the councils and/or these planning portals operate under an Open Government Licence : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Government_Licence . These in theory permit commercial use.

I would also see that there is a strong case to say that it is aggregation. Something that would help is redirecting users to the original source content whenever you are referencing it within your search.
