Do I need planning permission for garden paving?

Does planning permission legislation in relation to having a garden paving installed apply to the entire UK? Or is it specific to different regions/some regions?

"I think it's all over but each area has its own permission if you are changing from soft ground to hard you will need permission mostly due to the waterfall and where it will go"
