Paragraph 2 Prohibition order made by planning authority: requirement for confirmation by the Welsh MinistersI1
England and Wales Not yet in force
A prohibition order made by a planning authority does not take effect unless it is confirmed by the Welsh Ministers.
Where a planning authority submits an order to the Welsh Ministers for confirmation, it must serve notice of the submission of the order on—
every owner and occupier of the land to which the order relates, and
any other person the authority thinks will be affected by the order.
The notice must specify the period within which a person on whom it is served may make a request in writing to the Welsh Ministers for an opportunity to appear before and be heard by an inspector.
If a person on whom the notice is served makes such a request within that period, before confirming the order the Welsh Ministers must give such an opportunity to that person and the planning authority.
The period specified under sub-paragraph (3) must be at least 28 days beginning with the day after the day the notice is served.
The Welsh Ministers may confirm the order with or without modifications.
Where the Welsh Ministers confirm the order, the planning authority must serve a copy of the order on—
every person who was served with notice under sub-paragraph (2), and
any other person who falls within sub-paragraph (2)(a) or (b) when the order is confirmed.
