Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of these Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Town and Country Planning General Regulations 1992.
Generally, planning permission enures for the benefit of the land. Regulation 9 (effect of planning permission) of the 1992 Regulations provides an exception to this. Where an interested planning authority grants itself planning permission for its own development, the permission enures only for the benefit of the authority or, in the case of joint development, the authority and the other person(s) specified in the application for planning permission as the joint developer.
These Regulations exclude from the ambit of regulation 9 those planning authorities which are the sole local authority for their area, so that they may grant themselves permission which enures for the benefit of the land. In England, the councils in question are, a district council in an area where there is no county council, a county council in an area where there is no district council and a council of a London borough, and in Wales, a council of a county and a council of a county borough.
