Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order amends, as regards England only, the Town and Country Planning (General Development Procedure) Order 1995 by omitting sub-paragraph (c) of article 2B(15). That sub-paragraph prohibits the making of a local development order which would grant planning permission for development that is likely to have a significant effect on a European site as defined in regulation 10 of the Conservation (Natural Habitats, &c.) Regulations 1994 (S.I. 1994/2716). The revocation is consequential on regulation 5(36) of the Conservation (Natural Habitats, &c.) (Amendment) Regulations (S.I. 2007/1843), which inserts provision to similar effect as article 2B(15)(c) in regulation 64A of the 1994 Regulations.
