# The London Legacy Development Corporation (Establishment and Planning Functions) (Amendment and Revocation) Order 2024, Paragraph 6: Transitional provision: development plan documents and supplementary planning documents


(1) Any development plan document or supplementary planning document adopted by the LLDC under section 23 of the 2004 Act before the commencement date has effect on and after that date as if it had been adopted by the successor authority for the area to which it relates.
(2) Nothing in sub-paragraph (1) affects any power of a successor authority to request that a development plan document to which paragraph (1) related is revoked.
(3) Sub-paragraph (4) applies where, before the commencement date, the LLDC has taken or started to take any step in relation to the preparation of a development plan document or supplementary planning document (“the draft document”) pursuant to section 19, 20 or 26 of the 2004 Act or under any order or regulation made or having effect under that Act.
(4) Any step mentioned in sub-paragraph (3) is treated on or after the commencement date as a step taken or started by the successor authority for that area.
(5) Where sub-paragraph (4) applies to a draft document the LLDC must send a copy of any representations received concerning the draft document to the successor authority.
(6) Where any planning document has been issued by the LLDC in relation to a draft document referred to in sub-paragraph (3) before the commencement date, no further planning document is required to be issued by the successor authority solely as a result of the transfer of functions to the successor authority by this Order.
(7) Where a draft document referred to in sub-paragraph (3) which is a development plan document has been submitted for examination under section 20 of the 2004 Act before the commencement date and the person appointed to carry out that examination has not at that date made their recommendations —
(a) nothing in this Order prevents that person from deciding that the document complies with the matters set out in section 20(5) of that Act, and
(b) that person must send their recommendations when made to the successor authority.
(8) In this paragraph—
“development plan document” has the same meaning as in section 37(3) of the 2004 Act;
“supplementary planning document” has the same meaning as regulation 2(1) of the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) Regulations 2012.
