Council planning record

I would like to put in a notice of intent to prune an apple tree in my garden.I have 3 small children and the current condition of the tree could be a potential hazard to them playing in the garden.I want to take the weight of some of the limbs off the main trunk as far as possible to allow the tree to be healthier and less of a hazard. Reduction due to disease and weight is approximately 2metres.The tree appears to not have been pollarded in roughly a decade.The tree produces an excessive load and apples fall continuously for several months which makes a hazard for small children playing underneath.
