Paragraph 7 Supplementary provisionsI1I2

It is not a ground of application to the High Court under section 183, or of appeal to the High Court under section 184, that an appeal ought to have been determined by the Welsh Ministers instead of an appointed person, unless the appellant or the planning authority challenges the appointed person’s power to determine the appeal before the decision on the appeal is given.

F1An appointed person’s functions of determining an appeal and doing anything in connection with it are to be treated for the purposes of the Public Services Ombudsman (Wales) Act 2019 (anaw 3) as functions of the Welsh Government.
