Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
Section 171E of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 enables a local planning authority to issue a temporary stop notice (“TSN”) if they think that there has been a breach of planning control and that it is expedient that the activity, or any part of it, which amounts to the breach, is stopped immediately.
Section 171F(1)(a) provides that a TSN does not prohibit the use of a building as a dwelling house. Section 171F(1)(b) enables the Secretary of State to prescribe descriptions of activities which are not prohibited by a TSN, and circumstances in which the carrying out of an activity is not prohibited by a TSN.
These Regulations apply in relation to England only.
Regulation 2 of these Regulations prescribes the stationing of a caravan on land where the land is used for that purpose immediately before the issue of the TSN, and the caravan is at that time occupied by a person as his main residence unless the local planning authority consider that the risk of harm to a compelling public interest arising from the stationing of the caravan is so serious so as to outweigh any benefit to the occupier of the caravan in the stationing of the caravan for the period for which the temporary stop notice has effect.
