Regulation 20 Notice of an examination, inquiry or other hearing on behalf of the Secretary of State

Where the Secretary of State causes a local inquiry or other hearing to be held for the purpose of considering objections to a unitary development plan or part of a plan submitted to him under paragraph 7 of Schedule 1, or to modifications which he proposes to make to such a plan, he shall give such notice as the local authority would be required to give by regulation 13 if they were proposing to hold an inquiry or other hearing.

Paragraph (1) applies where the Secretary of State causes an examination in public to be held under paragraph 9(4) of Schedule 1 as if that examination were a local inquiry.
