(2) The Secretary of State must consult—

(a)in all cases—

(i)Natural England,

(ii)any person with a relevant interest in land which is not affected land(1) but would be such land if the possible modification were made to the proposals, and

(b)where any person has made an objection in connection with which the Secretary of State wishes to identify or investigate the possible modification—

(i)that person, and

(ii)any other person with a relevant interest in relevant land.

(3) For the purpose of determining whether land would be affected land for the purposes of paragraph (2)(a)(ii), in section 55J(1) of the 1949 Act—

(a)in paragraph (a) of the definition of “affected land” and paragraph (a) of the definition of “relevant coastal margin”, “the proposals” is taken to mean the proposals as modified by the possible modification;

(b)and, accordingly, the words “(without modifications)” in paragraph (a) of the definition of “relevant coastal margin” are taken to be omitted.

11.—(1) This regulation applies where the Secretary of State is minded, as contemplated in paragraph 16(4) of the Reports Schedule, to approve proposals with a relevant modification.

(a)so modified, or

(b)affected by that modification.

(5) For the purposes of paragraph (4)—

(a)any reference to a coastal access report (however expressed) is taken to be a reference to the proposals in that report; and

(b)a part of the proposals is taken to be affected by the relevant modification if that modification affects the question of whether a fair balance is struck in respect of that part.

(a)in paragraph (a) of the definition of “affected land” and paragraph (a) of the definition of “relevant coastal margin”, “the proposals” is taken to mean the proposals as modified by the relevant modification;
