Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

Before the Secretary of State makes an order or confirms an order made by a local highway authority, he shall, in the case of his own order, consider any objections received by him within the period specified in Regulation 3 above, and in the case of an order made by a local highway authority, consider any objections transmitted to him by that authority under Regulation 6 above and also any proposals of that authority for modifying the order, and shall in either case, if he has caused a local inquiry to be held in connection with the order, consider the report of the person who held the inquiry.
