Town and Country Planning Act 1990

128 Effect on claims of direction under s. 80

(1) Where, in accordance with section 81(4), the Secretary of State gives notice of a direction under section 80 to a person who has made a claim for compensation in respect of the planning decision to which that direction relates, that person, if he does not withdraw the claim, may, at any time within 30 days after the service on him of the Secretary of State’s notice, give notice to the Secretary of State modifying the claim.

(2) Subject to any such modification, where the Secretary of State gives a direction under section 80 in respect of a decision of a local planning authority, any claim made in respect of that decision shall have effect as if it had been made in respect of the decision which, by virtue of the direction, is substituted for the decision of the authority or, as the case may be, as if it had been made in respect of the decision of the authority as modified by the direction.
