Wood burning stove and building regulations?

My wife and I would like to have our old open fire removed and then
install a woodburning multi-fuel stove with a chimney liner.
After consulting 4 builders we are undecided about the procedure
because it appears that we must involve the Planning authorities for
the simple act of installing the liner!
We used the Planning people for our extension and it took 4 months
before any decision was made!
With winter fast approaching does anyone know for a certainty what
exactly is entailed as regards planning and building regulations?
Regards, Peter.
How do planning know that there is no liner already in your chimney?
