Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order applies to works for the demolition of a listed building executed or to be executed on or after 19th February 2001. For each of the references in section 8(2) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 to “the Royal Commission” (the Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England) the Order substitutes “the Commission” (the Historic Buildings and Monuments Commission for England also known as English Heritage). Section 8(2) sets out the requirements for authorisation of works for the demolition of a listed building.

This means that notice of any proposal to execute works for the demolition of a listed building under section 8(2)(b) has to be given to English Heritage instead of the Royal Commission. Also, after such notice is given, members or officers of English Heritage have to be given access to the building for at least one month after listed building consent is granted but before works commence for the purpose of recording it. Alternatively, English Heritage have to state in writing that they have completed their recording of the building or do not wish to record it.
