Paragraph 2
England and Wales
The Minister shall—
in two successive weeks publish a notice in the prescribed form in one or more local newspapers circulating in the locality in which the land comprised in the draft order is situated F2, and
for a period of at least 21 days ending with the day specified under sub-paragraph (2)(d), publish a notice in the prescribed form on an appropriate website.
The F3notice notices shall—
state that the order has been prepared in draft and is about to be made,
describe the land and state the purpose for which the land is required,
name a place within the locality where a copy of the draft order and of the map referred to therein may be inspected, F4and
specify a website on which those copies may be viewed, and
specify the time (not being less than twenty-one days from the first publication of the notice) within which, and the manner in which, objections to the draft order can be made.
specify the final day for making objections to the draft order, and the manner in which objections can be made.
In the case of a notice under sub-paragraph (1)(a), the requirement in sub-paragraph (2)(b) to describe the land may be met by briefly identifying the land (by giving its postal address or otherwise).
If the appropriate authority (see paragraph 4(8)) is satisfied that, because of special circumstances, it is impracticable for the Minister to make the copies referred to in sub-paragraph (2)(c) available for inspection at an appropriate place, the appropriate authority may direct that the requirement in sub-paragraph (2)(c) (together with that in paragraph 3(1)(ba)) is not to apply.
In addition, the Minister shall affix a notice in the prescribed form to a conspicuous object or objects on or near the land comprised in the draft order.
The notice under sub-paragraph (3) must—
be addressed to persons occupying or having an interest in the land, and
set out each of the matters mentioned in sub-paragraph (2) F10(but reading the reference there to first publication of the notice as a reference to the day when the notice under sub-paragraph (3) is first affixed).
