Who deals with planning permission and building regs?

If I were to hire a tree surgery company, would they deal with my local planning authority for me when it comes to planning permission? What about the building regs?

"I wouldn't leave it down to the tree surgeon. If I was you I would contact the council and see what they recommend. Planning permission and building regs are only needed if you are contracting a building
But check before you proceed"
