Article 3 Application of these Rules
These Rules apply in relation to any local inquiry held in Wales by an inspector before that inspector determines an appeal to the National Assembly—
in relation to an application for planning permission under section 78 of the Planning Act (including an appeal made under that section as it is applied to tree preservation ordersf1);
in relation to listed building consent under section 20 of the Listed Buildings Act, or in relation to conservation area consent under that section as applied by section 74(3) of that Act;
against the service of a tree preservation enforcement notice under section 208 of the Planning Act,
but do not apply to any local inquiry by reason of the application of any provision mentioned in this paragraph by any other enactment.
Where these Rules apply in relation to an appeal which at some time fell to be disposed of in accordance with the Town and Country Planning (Inquiries Procedure) (Wales) Rules 2003f2 or Rules superseded by those Rulesf3, any step taken or thing done under those Rules which could have been done under any corresponding provision of these Rules has effect as if it had been taken or done under that corresponding provision.
