34.—(1) This article applies to—
(a)any agreement for leasing to any person the whole or any part of the authorised development or the right to operate the same; and
(b)any agreement entered into by the undertaker with any person for the construction, maintenance, use or operation of the authorised development, or any part of it,
so far as any such agreement relates to the terms on which any land which is the subject of a lease granted by or under that agreement is to be provided for that person’s use.
(2) No enactment or rule of law regulating the rights and obligations of landlords and tenants prejudices the operation of any agreement to which this article applies.
(3) Accordingly, no such enactment or rule of law applies in relation to the rights and obligations of the parties to any lease granted by or under any such agreement so as to—
(a)exclude or in any respect modify any of the rights and obligations of those parties under the terms of the lease, whether with respect to the termination of the tenancy or any other matter;
(b)confer or impose on any such party any right or obligation arising out of or connected with anything done or omitted on or in relation to land which is the subject of the lease, in addition to any such right or obligation provided for by the terms of the lease; or
(c)restrict the enforcement (whether by action for damages or otherwise) by any party to the lease of any obligation of any other party under the lease.
35. Development consent granted by this Order is to be treated as specific planning permission for the purposes of section 264(3)(a) (cases in which land is to be treated as operational land for the purposes of that Act) of the 1990 Act.
36.—(1) Where proceedings are brought under section 82(1) (summary proceedings by person aggrieved by statutory nuisance) of the Environmental Protection Act 1990(1) in relation to a nuisance falling within paragraph (g) of section 79(1) (noise emitted from premises so as to be prejudicial to health or a nuisance) of that Act, no order is to be made, and no fine may be imposed, under section 82(2)(2) of that Act if—
(a)the defendant shows that the nuisance—
(i)relates to premises used by the Secretary of State for the purposes of or in connection with the construction or maintenance of the authorised development and that the nuisance is attributable to the carrying out of the authorised development in accordance with a notice served under section 60 (control of noise on construction site), or a consent given under section 61 (prior consent for work on construction site) or section 65 (noise exceeding registered level), of the Control of Pollution Act 1974(3); or
(ii)is a consequence of the construction or maintenance of the authorised development and that it cannot reasonably be avoided; or
(b)the defendant shows that the nuisance is a consequence of the use of the authorised development and that it cannot reasonably be avoided.
(2) Section 61(9) of the Control of Pollution Act 1974 and section 65(8) of that Act, do not apply where the consent relates to the use of premises by the Secretary of State for the purposes of or in connection with the construction or maintenance of the authorised development.

(c)with the consent of the recipient and subject to paragraphs (5) to (8) by electronic transmission.
(2) Where the person on whom a notice or other document to be served for the purposes of this Order is a body corporate, the notice or document is duly served if it is served on the secretary or clerk of that body.
(3) For the purposes of section 7 (references to service by post) of the Interpretation Act 1978(4) as it applies for the purposes of this article, the proper address of any person in relation to the service on that person of a notice or document under paragraph (1) is, if that person has given an address for service, that address, and otherwise—
(a)in the case of the secretary or clerk of a body corporate, the registered or principal office of that body; and
(b)in any other case, the last known address of that person at the time of service.
(4) Where for the purposes of this Order a notice or other document is required or authorised to be served on a person as having any interest in, or as the occupier of, land and the name or address of that person cannot be ascertained after reasonable enquiry, the notice may be served by—
(a)addressing it to that person by name or by the description of “owner”, or as the case may be “occupier”, of the land (describing it); and
(b)either leaving it in the hands of a person who is or appears to be resident or employed on the land or leaving it conspicuously affixed to some building or object on or near the land.
(5) Where a notice or other document required to be served or sent for the purposes of this Order is served or sent by electronic transmission the requirement shall be taken to be fulfilled only where—

(9) This article does not exclude the employment of any method of service not expressly provided for by it.

41.—(1) This article applies to roads in respect of which the Secretary of State is not the traffic authority.

(b)permit, prohibit or restrict the stopping, waiting, loading or unloading of vehicles on any road;

either at all times or at times, on days or during such periods as may be specified by the Secretary of State.

(4) The Secretary of State must consult the chief officer of police and the traffic authority in whose area the road is situated before complying with the provisions of paragraph (5).
(5) The Secretary of State must not exercise the powers conferred by paragraph (2) unless the Secretary of State has—

(i)12 weeks’ notice in writing of the Secretary of State’s intention so to do in the case of a prohibition, restriction or other provision intended to have effect permanently; or
(ii)4 weeks’ notice in writing of the Secretary of State’s intention so to do in the case of a prohibition, restriction or other provision intended to have effect temporarily,
to the chief officer of police and to the traffic authority in whose area the road is situated; and
(b)advertised the Secretary of State’s intention in such manner as the traffic authority may specify in writing within 28 days of its receipt of notice of the Secretary of State’s intention in the case of sub-paragraph (a)(i), or within 7 days of its receipt of notice of the Secretary of State’s intention in the case of sub-paragraph (a)(ii).
(6) Any prohibition, restriction or other provision made by the Secretary of State under paragraph (2)—
(a)has effect as if duly made by, as the case may be—
(i)the traffic authority in whose area the road is situated, as a traffic regulation order under the 1984 Act; or
(ii)the local authority in whose area the road is situated, as an order under section 32 (power of local authorities to provide parking places) of the 1984 Act(5),
and the instrument by which it is effected may specify savings and exemptions to which the prohibition, restriction or other provision is subject; and
(b)is deemed to be a traffic order for the purposes of Schedule 7 (road traffic contraventions subject to civil enforcement) to the Traffic Management Act 2004(6).
(7) Any prohibition, restriction or other provision made under this article may be suspended, varied or revoked by the Secretary of State from time to time by subsequent exercise of the powers conferred by paragraph (2) within a period of 24 months from the opening of the authorised development.
(8) Before exercising the powers conferred by paragraph (2) the Secretary of State must consult such persons as the Secretary of State considers necessary and appropriate and must take into consideration any representations made to the Secretary of State by any such person.
(9) Expressions used in this article and in the 1984 Act have the same meaning in this article as in that Act.
(10) The powers conferred on the Secretary of State by this article with respect to any road have effect subject to any agreement entered into by the Secretary of State with any person with an interest in (or who undertakes activities in relation to) premises served by the road.
(11) If the traffic authority fails to notify the Secretary of State of its decision within 28 days of receiving an application for consent under paragraph (2) the traffic authority is deemed to have granted consent.
