Duties of authorities on service of purchase notice

Action by council on whom purchase notice is served.
139
1
The council on whom a purchase notice is served shall serve on the owner by whom the purchase notice was served a notice (a “response notice”) stating either—
a
that the council are willing to comply with the purchase notice; or
b
that another local authority or statutory undertakers specified in the response notice have agreed to comply with it in their place; or
c
that for reasons so specified the council are not willing to comply with the purchase notice and have not found any other local authority or statutory undertakers who will agree to comply with it in their place, and that they have sent the Secretary of State a copy of the purchase notice and of the response notice.
2
A response notice must be served before the end of the period of three months beginning with the date of service of the purchase notice.
3
Where the council on whom a purchase notice is served by an owner have served a response notice on him in accordance with subsection (1)(a) or (b), the council or, as the case may be, the other local authority or statutory undertakers specified in the response notice shall be deemed—
a
to be authorised to acquire the interest of the owner compulsorily in accordance with the relevant provisions, and
b
to have served a notice to treat in respect of it on the date of service of the response notice.
4
Where the council propose to serve such a response notice as is mentioned in subsection (1)(c), they must first send the Secretary of State a copy—
a
of the proposed response notice, and
b
of the purchase notice.
5
A notice to treat which is deemed to have been served by virtue of subsection (3)(b) may not be withdrawn under section 31 of the Land Compensation Act 1961.

Procedure on reference of purchase notice to Secretary of State.
140
1
Where a copy of a purchase notice is sent to the Secretary of State under section 139(4), he shall consider whether to confirm the notice or to take other action under section 141 in respect of it.
2
Before confirming a purchase notice or taking such other action, the Secretary of State must give notice of his proposed action—
a
to the person who served the purchase notice;
b
to the council on whom it was served;
c
in England outside Greater London—
i
to the county planning authority and also, where that authority is a joint planning board, to the county council; and
ii
if the district council on whom the purchase notice in question was served is a constituent member of a joint planning board, to that board;
cc
in Wales, to the local planning authority, where it is a joint planning board; and
d
if the Secretary of State proposes to substitute any other local authority or statutory undertakers for the council on whom the notice was served, to them.
3
A notice under subsection (2) shall specify the period (which must not be less than 28 days from its service) within which any of the persons on whom it is served may require the Secretary of State to give those persons an opportunity of appearing before, and being heard by, a person appointed by the Secretary of State for the purpose.
4
If within that period any of those persons so require, before the Secretary of State confirms the purchase notice or takes any other action under section 141 in respect of it he must give those persons such an opportunity.
5
If, after any of those persons have appeared before and been heard by the appointed person, it appears to the Secretary of State to be expedient to take action under section 141 otherwise than in accordance with the notice given by him, the Secretary of State may take that action accordingly.

Action by Secretary of State in relation to purchase notice.
141
1
Subject to the following provisions of this section and to section 142(3), if the Secretary of State is satisfied that the conditions specified in subsection (3) or, as the case may be, subsection (4) of section 137 are satisfied in relation to a purchase notice, he shall confirm the notice.
2
If it appears to the Secretary of State to be expedient to do so, he may, instead of confirming the purchase notice—
a
in the case of a notice served on account of the refusal of planning permission, grant planning permission for the development in question;
b
in the case of a notice served on account of planning permission for development being granted subject to conditions, revoke or amend those conditions so far as appears to him to be required in order to enable the land to be rendered capable of reasonably beneficial use by the carrying out of that development;
c
in the case of a notice served on account of the revocation of planning permission by an order under section 97, cancel the order;
d
in the case of a notice served on account of the modification of planning permission by such an order by the imposition of conditions, revoke or amend those conditions so far as appears to him to be required in order to enable the land to be rendered capable of reasonably beneficial use by the carrying out of the development in respect of which the permission was granted; or
e
in the case of a notice served on account of the making of an order under section 102 or paragraph 1 of Schedule 9, revoke the order or, as the case may be, amend the order so far as appears to him to be required in order to prevent the land from being rendered incapable of reasonably beneficial use by the order.
3
If it appears to the Secretary of State that the land, or any part of the land, could be rendered capable of reasonably beneficial use within a reasonable time by the carrying out of any other development for which planning permission ought to be granted, he may, instead of confirming the purchase notice, or, as the case may be, of confirming it so far as it relates to that part of the land, direct that, if an application for planning permission for that development is made, it must be granted.
4
If it appears to the Secretary of State, having regard to the probable ultimate use of the land, that it is expedient to do so, he may, if he confirms the notice, modify it, either in relation to the whole or any part of the land, by substituting another local authority or statutory undertakers for the council on whom the notice was served.
5
Any reference in section 140 to the taking of action by the Secretary of State under this section includes a reference to the taking by him of a decision not to confirm the purchase notice either on the grounds that any of the conditions referred to in subsection (1) are not satisfied or by virtue of section 142.

Power to refuse to confirm purchase notice where land has restricted use by virtue of previous planning permission.
142
1
This section applies where a purchase notice is served in respect of land which consists in whole or in part of land which has a restricted use by virtue of an existing planning permission.
2
For the purposes of this section, land is to be treated as having a restricted use by virtue of an existing planning permission if it is part of a larger area in respect of which planning permission has previously been granted (and has not been revoked) and either—
a
it remains a condition of the planning permission (however expressed) that that part shall remain undeveloped or be preserved or laid out in a particular way as amenity land in relation to the remainder; or
b
the planning permission was granted on an application which contemplated (expressly or by necessary implication) that the part should not be comprised in the development for which planning permission was sought, or should be preserved or laid out as mentioned in paragraph (a).
3
Where a copy of the purchase notice is sent to the Secretary of State under section 139(4), he need not confirm the notice under section 141(1) if it appears to him that the land having a restricted use by virtue of an existing planning permission ought, in accordance with that permission, to remain undeveloped or, as the case may be, remain or be preserved or laid out as amenity land in relation to the remainder of the large area for which that planning permission was granted.

Effect of Secretary of State’s action in relation to purchase notice.
143

a
the council on whom the purchase notice was served, or
b
if under section 141(4) the Secretary of State modified the purchase notice by substituting another local authority or statutory undertakers for that council, that other authority or those undertakers,
shall be deemed to be authorised to acquire the interest of the owner compulsorily in accordance with the relevant provisions, and to have served a notice to treat in respect of it on such date as the Secretary of State may direct.
2
If, before the end of the relevant period, the Secretary of State has neither—
a
confirmed the purchase notice, nor
b
taken any such action in respect of it as is mentioned in section 141(2) or (3), nor
c
notified the owner by whom the notice was served that he does not propose to confirm the notice,
the notice shall be deemed to be confirmed at the end of that period, and the council on whom the notice was served shall be deemed to be authorised as mentioned in subsection (1) and to have served a notice to treat in respect of the owner’s interest at the end of that period.
3
Subject to subsection (4), for the purposes of subsection (2) the relevant period is—
a
the period of nine months beginning with the date of service of the purchase notice; or
b
if it ends earlier, the period of six months beginning with the date on which a copy of the purchase notice was sent to the Secretary of State.

5
Where—
a
the Secretary of State has notified the owner by whom a purchase notice has been served of a decision on his part to confirm, or not to confirm, the notice; and
b
that decision is quashed under Part XII,
the purchase notice shall be treated as cancelled, but the owner may serve a further purchase notice in its place.
6
The reference in subsection (5) to a decision to confirm, or not to confirm, the purchase notice includes—
a
any decision not to confirm the notice in respect of any part of the land to which it relates, and
b
any decision to grant any permission, or give any direction, instead of confirming the notice, either wholly or in part.
7
For the purposes of determining whether a further purchase notice under subsection (5) was served within the period prescribed for the service of purchase notices, the planning decision in consequence of which the notice was served shall be treated as having been made on the date on which the decision of the Secretary of State was quashed.
8
A notice to treat which is deemed to have been served by virtue of subsection (1) or (2) may not be withdrawn under section 31 of the Land Compensation Act 1961.

Compensation

Special provisions as to compensation where purchase notice served.
144
1
Where compensation is payable by virtue of section 107 in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying out any works on land, any compensation payable in respect of the acquisition of an interest in the land in pursuance of a purchase notice shall be reduced by an amount equal to the value of those works.
2
Where—
a
the Secretary of State directs under section 141(3) that, if an application for it is made, planning permission must be granted for the development of any land, and
b
on a claim made to the local planning authority within the prescribed time and in the prescribed manner, it is shown that the permitted development value of the interest in that land in respect of which the purchase notice was served is less than its Schedule 3 value,
that authority shall pay the person entitled to that interest compensation of an amount equal to the difference.
3
If the planning permission mentioned in subsection (2)(a) would be granted subject to conditions for regulating the design or external appearance, or the size or height of buildings, or for regulating the number of buildings to be erected on the land, the Secretary of State may direct that in assessing any compensation payable under subsection (2) those conditions must be disregarded, either altogether or to such extent as may be specified in the direction.
4
The Secretary of State may only give a direction under subsection (3) if it appears to him to be reasonable to do so having regard to the local circumstances.
5
Sections 117 and 118 shall have effect in relation to compensation under subsection (2) as they have effect in relation to compensation to which those sections apply.
6

This section applies where—
a
an acquiring authority is deemed under this Chapter to have served notice to treat in respect of any agricultural land on a person (“the claimant”) who has a greater interest in the land than as tenant for a year or from year to year (whether or not he is in occupation of the land), and
b
the claimant has such an interest in other agricultural land (“the unaffected area”) comprised in the same agricultural unit as that to which the notice relates.
2
Where this section applies the claimant may serve on the acquiring authority a counter-notice—
a
claiming that the unaffected area is not reasonably capable of being farmed, either by itself or in conjunction with other relevant land, as a separate agricultural unit; and
b
requiring the acquiring authority to purchase his interest in the whole of the unaffected area.
3
Subject to subsection (4), “other relevant land” in subsection (2) means—

4
Where a notice to treat has been served or is deemed under this Chapter or under Part III of the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981 to have been served in respect of any of the unaffected area or in respect of other relevant land as defined in subsection (3), then, unless and until the notice to treat is withdrawn, this section and section 146 shall have effect as if that land did not form part of the unaffected land or, as the case may be, did not constitute other relevant land.
5
Where a counter-notice is served under subsection (2) the claimant shall also serve a copy of it on any other person who has an interest in the unaffected area (but failure to comply with this subsection shall not invalidate the counter-notice).
6
A counter-notice under subsection (2) and any copy of that notice required to be served under subsection (5) must be served within the period of two months beginning with the date on which the notice to treat is deemed to have been served.
7
This section is without prejudice to the rights conferred by sections 93 and 94 of the Lands Clauses (Consolidation) Act 1845 or section 8(2) and (3) of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965 (provisions as to divided land).

b
to have served a notice to treat in respect of it on the date on which notice to treat is deemed to have been served under that provision.
4
A claimant may withdraw a counter-notice at any time before the compensation payable in respect of a compulsory acquisition in pursuance of the counter-notice has been determined by the Upper Tribunal or at any time before the end of six weeks beginning with the date on which it is determined.
5
Where a counter-notice is withdrawn by virtue of subsection (4) any notice to treat deemed to have been served in consequence of it shall be deemed to have been withdrawn.
6
Without prejudice to subsection (5), a notice to treat deemed to have been served by virtue of this section may not be withdrawn under section 31 of the Land Compensation Act 1961.
7
The compensation payable in respect of the acquisition of an interest in land in pursuance of a notice to treat deemed to have been served by virtue of this section shall be assessed on the assumptions mentioned in section 5(2), (3) and (4) of the Land Compensation Act 1973.

c
if that question is referred to the Tribunal, the lessor shall be deemed—
i
to have accepted the surrender of the lease at the expiry of one month after the date of the determination of the Tribunal or on such other date as the Tribunal may direct, and
ii
to have agreed with the authority on the terms of surrender which the Tribunal has held to be reasonable.
9
For the purposes of subsection (8) any terms as to surrender contained in the lease shall be disregarded.
10
Where the lessor—
a
refuses to accept any sum payable to him by virtue of subsection (8), or
b
refuses or fails to make out his title to the satisfaction of the acquiring authority,
they may pay into court any such sum payable to the lessor and section 9(2) and (5) of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965 (deposit of compensation in cases of refusal to convey etc.) shall apply to that sum with the necessary modifications.
11
Where an acquiring authority who become entitled to the lease of any land as mentioned in subsection (8) are a body incorporated by or under any enactment, the corporate powers of the authority shall, if they would not otherwise do so, include the power to farm that land.

3
Subsection (1)(c) does not apply if the notice is withdrawn following the grant of planning permission as mentioned in subsection (2).
4
A person who at the time the notice is served has an interest in the land to which the notice relates is entitled to be compensated by the local planning authority in respect of any loss or damage directly attributable to the prohibition effected by the notice.
5
Subsections (3) to (7) of section 186 apply to compensation payable under this section as they apply to compensation payable under that section; and for that purpose references in those subsections to a stop notice must be taken to be references to a temporary stop notice.

Enforcement warning notice: England
172ZA
1
The local planning authority may issue a notice (an “enforcement warning notice”) where it appears to them that—
a
there has been a breach of planning control in respect of any land in England, and
b
there is a reasonable prospect that, if an application for planning permission in respect of the development concerned were made, planning permission would be granted.
2
The notice must—
a
state the matters that appear to the authority to constitute the breach of planning control, and
b
state that, unless an application for planning permission is made within a period specified in the notice, further enforcement action may be taken.
3
A copy of the notice must be served—
a
on the owner and the occupier of the land to which it relates, and
b
on any other person having an interest in the land, being an interest that, in the opinion of the authority, would be materially affected by the taking of any further enforcement action.
4
The issue of an enforcement warning notice does not affect any other power exercisable in respect of any breach of planning control.

Assurance as regards prosecution for person served with notice
172A
1
When, or at any time after, an enforcement notice is served on a person, the local planning authority may give the person a letter—
a
explaining that, once the enforcement notice had been issued, the authority was required to serve the notice on the person,
b
giving the person one of the following assurances—
i
that, in the circumstances as they appear to the authority, the person is not at risk of being prosecuted under section 179 in connection with the enforcement notice, or
ii
that, in the circumstances as they appear to the authority, the person is not at risk of being prosecuted under section 179 in connection with the matters relating to the enforcement notice that are specified in the letter,
c
explaining, where the person is given the assurance under paragraph (b)(ii), the respects in which the person is at risk of being prosecuted under section 179 in connection with the enforcement notice, and
d
stating that, if the authority subsequently wishes to withdraw the assurance in full or part, the authority will first give the person a letter specifying a future time for the withdrawal that will allow the person a reasonable opportunity to take any steps necessary to avoid any risk of prosecution that is to cease to be covered by the assurance.
2
At any time after a person has under subsection (1) been given a letter containing an assurance, the local planning authority may give the person a letter withdrawing the assurance (so far as not previously withdrawn) in full or part from a time specified in the letter.
3
The time specified in a letter given under subsection (2) to a person must be such as will give the person a reasonable opportunity to take any steps necessary to avoid any risk of prosecution that is to cease to be covered by the assurance.
4
Withdrawal under subsection (2) of an assurance given under subsection (1) does not withdraw the assurance so far as relating to prosecution on account of there being a time before the withdrawal when steps had not been taken or an activity had not ceased.
5
An assurance given under subsection (1) (so far as not withdrawn under subsection (2)) is binding on any person with power to prosecute an offence under section 179.

Contents and effect of notice.
173
1
An enforcement notice shall state—
a
the matters which appear to the local planning authority to constitute the breach of planning control; and
b
the paragraph of section 171A(1) within which, in the opinion of the authority, the breach falls.
2
A notice complies with subsection (1)(a) if it enables any person on whom a copy of it is served to know what those matters are.
3
An enforcement notice shall specify the steps which the authority require to be taken, or the activities which the authority require to cease, in order to achieve, wholly or partly, any of the following purposes.
4
Those purposes are—
a
remedying the breach by making any development comply with the terms (including conditions and limitations) of any planning permission which has been granted in respect of the land, by discontinuing any use of the land or by restoring the land to its condition before the breach took place; or
b
remedying any injury to amenity which has been caused by the breach.
5
An enforcement notice may, for example, require—
a
the alteration or removal of any buildings or works;
b
the carrying out of any building or other operations;
c
any activity on the land not to be carried on except to the extent specified in the notice; or
d
the contour of a deposit of refuse or waste materials on land to be modified by altering the gradient or gradients of its sides.
6
Where an enforcement notice is issued in respect of a breach of planning control consisting of demolition of a building, the notice may require the construction of a building (in this section referred to as a “replacement building”) which, subject to subsection (7), is as similar as possible to the demolished building.
7
A replacement building—
a
must comply with any requirement imposed by any enactment applicable to the construction of buildings;
b
may differ from the demolished building in any respect which, if the demolished building had been altered in that respect, would not have constituted a breach of planning control;
c
must comply with any regulations made for the purposes of this subsection (including regulations modifying paragraphs (a) and (b)).
8
An enforcement notice shall specify the date on which it is to take effect and, subject to sections 175(4) and 289(4A), shall take effect on that date.
9
An enforcement notice shall specify the period at the end of which any steps are required to have been taken or any activities are required to have ceased and may specify different periods for different steps or activities; and, where different periods apply to different steps or activities, references in this Part to the period for compliance with an enforcement notice, in relation to any step or activity, are to the period at the end of which the step is required to have been taken or the activity is required to have ceased.
10
An enforcement notice shall specify such additional matters as may be prescribed, and regulations may require every copy of an enforcement notice served under section 172 to be accompanied by an explanatory note giving prescribed information as to the right of appeal under section 174.
11
Where—
a
an enforcement notice in respect of any breach of planning control could have required any buildings or works to be removed or any activity to cease, but does not do so; and
b
all the requirements of the notice have been complied with,
then, so far as the notice did not so require, planning permission shall be treated as having been granted by virtue of section 73A in respect of development consisting of the construction of the buildings or works or, as the case may be, the carrying out of the activities.
12
Where—
a
an enforcement notice requires the construction of a replacement building; and
b
all the requirements of the notice with respect to that construction have been complied with,
planning permission shall be treated as having been granted by virtue of section 73A in respect of development consisting of that construction.

Enforcement warning notice: Wales
173ZA
1
This section applies where it appears to the local planning authority that—
a
there has been a breach of planning control in respect of any land in Wales, and
b
there is a reasonable prospect that, if an application for planning permission in respect of the development concerned were made, planning permission would be granted.
2
The authority may issue a notice under this section (an “enforcement warning notice”).
3
A copy of an enforcement warning notice is to be served—
a
on the owner and the occupier of the land to which the notice relates, and
b
on any other person having an interest in the land, being an interest that, in the opinion of the authority, would be materially affected by the taking of any further enforcement action.
4
The notice must—
a
state the matters that appear to the authority to constitute the breach of planning control, and
b
state that, unless an application for planning permission is made within a period specified in the notice, further enforcement action may be taken.
5
The issue of an enforcement warning notice does not affect any other power exercisable in respect of any breach of planning control.

Variation and withdrawal of enforcement notices.
173A
1
The local planning authority may—
a
withdraw an enforcement notice issued by them; or
b
waive or relax any requirement of such a notice and, in particular, may extend any period specified in accordance with section 173(9).
2
The powers conferred by subsection (1) may be exercised whether or not the notice has taken effect.
3
The local planning authority shall, immediately after exercising the powers conferred by subsection (1), give notice of the exercise to every person who has been served with a copy of the enforcement notice or would, if the notice were re-issued, be served with a copy of it.
4
The withdrawal of an enforcement notice does not affect the power of the local planning authority to issue a further enforcement notice.

Appeal against enforcement notice.
174
1
A person having an interest in the land to which an enforcement notice relates or a relevant occupier may appeal to the Secretary of State against the notice, whether or not a copy of it has been served on him.
2
An appeal may be brought on any of the following grounds—
a
that, in respect of any breach of planning control which may be constituted by the matters stated in the notice, planning permission ought to be granted or, as the case may be, the condition or limitation concerned ought to be discharged;
b
that those matters have not occurred;
c
that those matters (if they occurred) do not constitute a breach of planning control;
d
that, at the date when the notice was issued, no enforcement action could be taken in respect of any breach of planning control which may be constituted by those matters;
e
that copies of the enforcement notice were not served as required by section 172;
f
that the steps required by the notice to be taken, or the activities required by the notice to cease, exceed what is necessary to remedy any breach of planning control which may be constituted by those matters or, as the case may be, to remedy any injury to amenity which has been caused by any such breach;
g
that any period specified in the notice in accordance with section 173(9) falls short of what should reasonably be allowed.
2A
An appeal may not be brought on the ground specified in subsection (2)(a) if—
a
the land to which the enforcement notice relates is in England, and
b
the enforcement notice was issued at a time after the making of an application for planning permission that was related to the enforcement notice.
2AA
For the purposes of subsection (2A)—
a
an application for planning permission for the development of any land is related to an enforcement notice if granting planning permission for the development would involve granting planning permission in respect of the matters specified in the enforcement notice as constituting a breach of planning control;
b
an application for planning permission that the local planning authority or the Secretary of State declined to determine under section 70A, 70B or 70C is to be ignored.
2AB
But subsection (2A) does not apply if—
a
the application for planning permission has ceased to be under consideration, and
b
the enforcement notice was issued after the end of the period of two years beginning with the day on which the application ceased to be under consideration.
2AC
For the purposes of subsection (2AB), an application for planning permission has ceased to be under consideration if—
a
the application was refused, or granted subject to conditions, and, in the case of an application determined by the local planning authority, the applicant did not appeal under section 78(1)(a);
b
the applicant did not appeal in the circumstances mentioned in section 78(2) and the application was not subsequently refused;
c
the applicant appealed under section 78(1)(a) or section 78(2) and—
i
the appeal was dismissed,
ii
the application was on appeal granted subject to conditions, or subject to different conditions, or
iii
the Secretary of State declined under section 79(6) to determine the appeal.
2B
For the purposes of subsection (2AB), the day on which the application ceased to be under consideration is—
a
in a case within subsection (2AC)(a), the day on which the right to appeal arose;
b
in a case within subsection (2AC)(b), the day after the end of the prescribed period referred to in section 78(2);
c
in a case within subsection (2AC)(c)(i), the day on which the appeal was dismissed;
d
in a case within subsection (2AC)(c)(ii), the day on which the appeal was determined;
e
in a case within subsection (2AC)(c)(iii) relating to an appeal under section 78(1)(a), the day on which the right to appeal arose;
f
in a case within subsection (2AC)(c)(iii) relating to an appeal under section 78(2), the day after the end of the prescribed period referred to in section 78(2).
2C
Where any breach of planning control constituted by the matters stated in the notice relates to relevant demolition (within the meaning of section 196D), an appeal may also be brought on the grounds that—
a
the relevant demolition was urgently necessary in the interests of safety or health;
b
it was not practicable to secure safety or health by works of repair or works for affording temporary support or shelter; and
c
the relevant demolition was the minimum measure necessary.
2D
An appeal against an enforcement notice may not be brought on the ground that planning permission ought to be granted in respect of a breach of planning control constituted by a matter stated in the notice, as specified in subsection (2)(a), if—
a
the land to which the enforcement notice relates is in Wales, and
b
the enforcement notice was issued after a decision to refuse planning permission for a related development was upheld on an appeal under section 78 (and for this purpose development is “related” if granting planning permission for it would involve granting planning permission in respect of the matter concerned).
2E
An appeal may not be brought on the ground that a condition or limitation ought to be discharged, as specified in subsection (2)(a), if—
a
the land to which the enforcement notice relates is in Wales, and
b
the enforcement notice was issued after a decision to grant planning permission subject to the condition or limitation was upheld on an appeal under section 78.
2F
For the purposes of subsections (2D) and (2E), references to a decision that has been upheld on an appeal include references to a decision in respect of which—
a
the Welsh Ministers have, under section 79(6), declined to determine an appeal or to proceed with the determination of an appeal;
b
an appeal has been dismissed under section 79(6A).
3
An appeal under this section shall be made . . . —
a
by giving written notice of the appeal to the Secretary of State before the date specified in the enforcement notice as the date on which it is to take effect; or
b
by sending such notice to him in a properly addressed and pre-paid letter posted to him at such time that, in the ordinary course of post, it would be delivered to him before that date
; or
c
by sending such notice to him using electronic communications at such time that, in the ordinary course of transmission, it would be delivered to him before that date.
4
A person who gives notice under subsection (3) shall submit to the Secretary of State, either when giving the notice or within the prescribed time, a statement in writing—
a
specifying the grounds on which he is appealing against the enforcement notice; and
b
giving such further information as may be prescribed.
5
If, where more than one ground is specified in that statement, the appellant does not give information required under subsection (4)(b) in relation to each of those grounds within the prescribed time, the Secretary of State may determine the appeal without considering any ground as to which the appellant has failed to give such information within that time.
6
In this section “relevant occupier” means a person who—
a
on the date on which the enforcement notice is issued occupies the land to which the notice relates by virtue of a licence [ . . .; and
b
continues so to occupy the land when the appeal is brought.

Appeals: supplementary provisions.
175
1
The Secretary of State may by regulations prescribe the procedure which is to be followed on appeals under section 174 and, in particular, but without prejudice to the generality of this subsection, may—

require the local planning authority to submit, within such time as may be prescribed, a statement indicating the submissions which they propose to put forward on the appeal;
b
specify the matters to be included in such a statement;
c
require the authority or the appellant to give such notice of such an appeal as may be prescribed;
d
require the authority to send to the Secretary of State, within such period from the date of the bringing of the appeal as may be prescribed, a copy of the enforcement notice and a list of the persons served with copies of it.
2
The notice to be prescribed under subsection (1)(c) shall be such notice as in the opinion of the Secretary of State is likely to bring the appeal to the attention of persons in the locality in which the land to which the enforcement notice relates is situated.
3
Subject to section 176(4), the Secretary of State shall, if either the appellant or the local planning authority so desire, give each of them an opportunity of appearing before and being heard by a person appointed by the Secretary of State for the purpose.
3A
Subsection (3) does not apply to an appeal against an enforcement notice issued by a local planning authority in England.
3B
Subsection (3) does not apply to an appeal against an enforcement notice issued by a local planning authority in Wales.
4
Where an appeal is brought under section 174 the enforcement notice shall subject to any order under section 289(4A) be of no effect pending the final determination or the withdrawal of the appeal.
5
Where any person has appealed to the Secretary of State against an enforcement notice, no person shall be entitled, in any other proceedings instituted after the making of the appeal, to claim that the notice was not duly served on the person who appealed.
6
Schedule 6 applies to appeals under section 174, including appeals under that section as applied by regulations under any other provisions of this Act.
7
Subsection (5) of section 250 of the Local Government Act 1972 (which authorises a Minister holding an inquiry under that section to make orders with respect to the costs of the parties) shall apply in relation to any proceedings
in England
before the Secretary of State on an appeal under section 174 as if those proceedings were an inquiry held by the Secretary of State under section 250.

General provisions relating to determination of appeals.
176
1
On an appeal under section 174 the Secretary of State may—
a
correct any defect, error or misdescription in the enforcement notice; or
b
vary the terms of the enforcement notice,
if he is satisfied that the correction or variation will not cause injustice to the appellant or the local planning authority.
2
Where the Secretary of State determines to allow the appeal, he may quash the notice.
2A
The Secretary of State shall give any directions necessary to give effect to his determination on the appeal.
3
The Secretary of State—
a
may dismiss an appeal if the appellant fails to comply with section 174(4) within the prescribed time; and
b
may allow an appeal and quash the enforcement notice if the local planning authority fail to comply with any requirement of regulations made by virtue of paragraph (a), (b), or (d) of section 175(1) within the prescribed period.
4
If section 175(3) would otherwise apply and the Secretary of State proposes to dismiss an appeal under paragraph (a) of subsection (3) of this section or to allow an appeal and quash the enforcement notice under paragraph (b) of that subsection, he need not comply with section 175(3).
5
Where it would otherwise be a ground for determining an appeal under section 174 in favour of the appellant that a person required to be served with a copy of the enforcement notice was not served, the Secretary of State may disregard that fact if neither the appellant nor that person has been substantially prejudiced by the failure to serve him.
6
If at any time before or during the determination of an appeal against an enforcement notice issued by a local planning authority in England it appears to the Secretary of State that the appellant is responsible for undue delay in the progress of the appeal, the Secretary of State may—
a
give the appellant notice that the appeal will be dismissed unless the appellant takes, within the period specified in the notice, such steps as are so specified for the expedition of the appeal, and
b
if the appellant fails to take those steps within that period, dismiss the appeal accordingly.

Grant or modification of planning permission on appeals against enforcement notices.
177
1
On the determination of an appeal under section 174, the Secretary of State may—
a
grant planning permission in respect of the matters stated in the enforcement notice as constituting a breach of planning control, whether in relation to the whole or any part of those matters or in relation to the whole or any part of the land to which the notice relates;
b
discharge any condition or limitation subject to which planning permission was granted;
c
determine whether, on the date on which the appeal was made, any existing use of the land was lawful, any operations which had been carried out in, on, over or under the land were lawful or any matter constituting a failure to comply with any condition or limitation subject to which planning permission was granted was lawful and, if so, issue a certificate under section 191.
1A
The provisions of sections 191 to 194 mentioned in subsection (1B) shall apply for the purposes of subsection (1)(c) as they apply for the purposes of section 191, but as if—
a
any reference to an application for a certificate were a reference to the appeal and any reference to the date of such an application were a reference to the date on which the appeal is made; and
b
references to the local planning authority were references to the Secretary of State.
1B
Those provisions are: sections 191(5) to (7), 193(4)
(so far as it relates to the form of the certificate), (6) and (7) and 194
1C
Subsection
(1)(a) applies only if the statement under section 174(4) specifies the ground mentioned in section 174(2)(a).
2
In considering whether to grant planning permission under subsection (1), the Secretary of State shall have regard to the provisions of the development plan, so far as material to the subject matter of the enforcement notice, and to any other material considerations.
3
The planning permission that may be granted under subsection (1) is any planning permission that might be granted on an application under Part III.
4
Where under subsection (1) the Secretary of State discharges a condition or limitation, he may substitute another condition or limitation for it, whether more or less onerous.
4A
Section 100ZA (which makes provision about restrictions on the power to impose conditions or limitations on a grant of planning permission in relation to land in England) applies in relation to conditions substituted under subsection (4) as it applies in relation to conditions imposed on a grant of planning permission to develop land which is granted on an application made under Part 3.
5
Where—
a
an appeal against an enforcement notice is brought under section 174, and
b
the statement under section 174(4) specifies the ground mentioned in section 174(2)(a),
the appellant shall be deemed to have made an application for planning permission in respect of the matters stated in the enforcement notice as constituting a breach of planning control.
5A
Where—
a
the statement under subsection (4) of section 174 specifies the ground mentioned in subsection (2)(a) of that section;
b
any fee is payable under regulations made by virtue of section 303 in respect of the application deemed to be made by virtue of the appeal; and
c
the Secretary of State gives notice in writing to the appellant specifying the period within which the fee must be paid,
then, if that fee is not paid within that period, the appeal, so far as brought on that ground, and the application shall lapse at the end of that period.
6
Any planning permission granted under subsection (1) on an appeal shall be treated as granted on the application deemed to have been made by the appellant.
7
In relation to a grant of planning permission or a determination under subsection (1) the Secretary of State’s decision shall be final.
8
For the purposes of section 69 the Secretary of State’s decision shall be treated as having been given by him in dealing with an application for planning permission made to the local planning authority.

Execution and cost of works required by enforcement notice.
178
1
Where any steps required by an enforcement notice to be taken are not taken within the period for compliance with the notice, the local planning authority may—

enter the land and take the steps; and
b
recover from the person who is then the owner of the land any expenses reasonably incurred by them in doing so.
2
Where a copy of an enforcement notice has been served in respect of any breach of planning control . . .—
a
any expenses incurred by the owner or occupier of any land for the purpose of complying with the notice, and

any sums paid by the owner of any land under subsection (1) in respect of expenses incurred by the local planning authority in taking steps required by such a notice to be taken,
shall be deemed to be incurred or paid for the use and at the request of the person by whom the breach of planning control was committed.
3
Regulations made under this Act may provide that—
a
section 276 of the Public Health Act 1936, (power of local authorities to sell materials removed in executing works under that Act subject to accounting for the proceeds of sale);
b
section 289 of that Act (power to require the occupier of any premises to permit works to be executed by the owner of the premises); and
c
section 294 of that Act (limit on liability of persons holding premises as agents or trustees in respect of the expenses recoverable under that Act),
shall apply, subject to such adaptations and modifications as may be specified in the regulations, in relation to any steps required to be taken by an enforcement notice.
4
Regulations under subsection (3) applying section 289 of the Public Health Act 1936 may include adaptations and modifications for the purpose of giving the owner of land to which an enforcement notice relates the right, as against all other persons interested in the land, to comply with the requirements of the enforcement notice.
5
Regulations under subsection (3) may also provide for the charging on the land of any expenses recoverable by a local planning authority under subsection (1).
6
Any person who wilfully obstructs a person acting in the exercise of powers under subsection (1) shall be guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale.

Offence where enforcement notice not complied with.
179
1
Where, at any time after the end of the period for compliance with an enforcement notice, any step required by the notice to be taken has not been taken or any activity
required by the notice to cease is being carried on, the person who is then the owner of the land is in breach of the notice.
2
Where the owner of the land is in breach of an enforcement notice he shall be guilty of an offence.
3
In proceedings against any person for an offence under subsection (2), it shall be a defence for him to show that he did everything he could be expected to do to
secure compliance with the notice.
4
A person who has control of or an interest in the land to which an enforcement notice relates (other than the owner) must not carry on any activity which is
required by the notice to cease or cause or permit such an activity to be carried on.
5
A person who, at any time after the end of the period for compliance with the notice, contravenes subsection (4) shall be guilty of an offence.
6
An offence under subsection (2) or (5) may be charged by reference to any day or longer period of time and a person may be convicted of a second or
subsequent offence under the subsection in question by reference to any period of time following the preceding conviction for such an offence.
7
Where—
a
a person charged with an offence under this section has not been served with a copy of the enforcement notice; and
b
the notice is not contained in the appropriate register kept under section 188,
it shall be a defence for him to show that he was not aware of the existence of the notice.
8
A person guilty of an offence under this section shall be liable
on summary conviction, or on conviction on indictment, to a fine
.
9
In determining the amount of any fine to be imposed on a person convicted of an offence under this section, the court shall in particular have regard to any financial
benefit which has accrued or appears likely to accrue to him in consequence of the offence.

Effect of planning permission, etc., on enforcement or breach of condition notice.
180
1
Where, after the service of—
a
a copy of an enforcement notice; or
b
a breach of condition notice,
planning permission is granted for any development carried out before the grant of that permission, the notice shall cease to have effect so far as inconsistent with that
permission.
2
Where after a breach of condition notice has been served any condition to which the notice relates is discharged, the notice shall cease to have effect so far as it requires
any person to secure compliance with the condition in question.
3
The fact that an enforcement notice or breach of condition notice has wholly or partly ceased to have effect by virtue of this section shall not affect the liability of any
person for an offence in respect of a previous failure to comply, or secure compliance, with the notice.

Enforcement notice to have effect against subsequent development.
181
1
Compliance with an enforcement notice, whether in respect of—
a
the completion, removal or alteration of any buildings or works;
b
the discontinuance of any use of land; or
c
any other requirements contained in the notice,
shall not discharge the notice.
2
Without prejudice to subsection (1), any provision of an enforcement notice requiring a use of land to be discontinued shall operate as a requirement that it shall
be discontinued permanently, to the extent that it is in contravention of Part III; and accordingly the resumption of that use at any time after it has been discontinued in
compliance with the enforcement notice shall to that extent be in contravention of the enforcement notice.
3
Without prejudice to subsection (1), if any development is carried out on land by way of reinstating or restoring buildings or works which have been removed or altered in compliance with an enforcement notice, the notice shall, notwithstanding that its terms are not apt for the purpose, be deemed
to apply in relation to the buildings or works as reinstated or restored as it applied in relation to the buildings or works before they were removed or altered; and, subject to subsection (4), the provisions of section 178(1) and (2) shall apply
accordingly.
4
Where, at any time after an enforcement notice takes effect—
a
any development is carried out on land by way of reinstating or restoring buildings or works which have been removed
or altered in compliance with the notice; and

b
the estimated amount of any increase in net receipts from the carrying on of the undertaking or the provision of the electronic communications code network in the period after the adjustment has been completed, in so far as that amount has not been taken into account in determining the amount mentioned in paragraph (b) of that subsection and is directly attributable to the adjustment.

6
The examiner is not to consider any matter that does not fall within sub-paragraph (1) (apart from considering whether the draft order is compatible with the Convention rights).
9
1
The general rule is that the examination of the issues by the examiner is to take the form of the consideration of written representations.
2
But the examiner must cause a hearing to be held for the purpose of receiving oral representations about a particular issue at the hearing—
a
in any case where the examiner considers that the consideration of oral representations is necessary to ensure adequate examination of the issue or a person has a fair chance to put a case, or

in such other cases as may be prescribed.
3
The following persons are entitled to make oral representations about the issue at the hearing—
a
the qualifying body,
b
the local planning authority,
c
where the hearing is held to give a person a fair chance to put a case, that person, and

such other persons as may be prescribed.
4
The hearing must be in public.
5
It is for the examiner to decide how the hearing is to be conducted, including—
a
whether a person making oral representations may be questioned by another person and, if so, the matters to which the questioning may relate, and
b
the amount of time for the making of a person's oral representations or for any questioning by another person.
6
In making decisions about the questioning of a person's oral representations by another, the examiner must apply the principle that the questioning should be done by the examiner except where the examiner considers that questioning by another is necessary to ensure—
a
adequate examination of a particular issue, or
b
a person has a fair chance to put a case.
7
Sub-paragraph (5) is subject to regulations under paragraph 11.
10
1
The examiner must make a report on the draft order containing recommendations in accordance with this paragraph (and no other recommendations).
2
The report must recommend either—
a
that the draft order is submitted to a referendum, or
b
that modifications specified in the report are made to the draft order and that the draft order as modified is submitted to a referendum, or
c
that the proposal for the order is refused.
3
The only modifications that may be recommended are—
a
modifications that the examiner considers need to be made to secure that the draft order meets the basic conditions mentioned in paragraph 8(2),
b
modifications that the examiner considers need to be made to secure that the draft order is compatible with the Convention rights,

d
modifications specifying a period under section 61L(2)(b) or (5), and
e
modifications for the purpose of correcting errors.
4
The report may not recommend that an order (with or without modifications) is submitted to a referendum if the examiner considers that the order does not—
a
meet the basic conditions mentioned in paragraph 8(2), or
b
comply with the provision made by or under sections 61E(2), 61J and 61L.
5
If the report recommends that an order (with or without modifications) is submitted to a referendum, the report must also make—
a
a recommendation as to whether the area for the referendum should extend beyond the neighbourhood area to which the order relates, and
b
if a recommendation is made for an extended area, a recommendation as to what the extended area should be.
6
The report must—
a
give reasons for each of its recommendations, and
b
contain a summary of its main findings.
7
The examiner must send a copy of the report to the qualifying body and the local planning authority.
8
The local planning authority must then arrange for the publication of the report in such manner as may be prescribed.
11
1
Regulations may make provision in connection with examinations under paragraph 7.
2
The regulations may in particular make provision as to—

4
If the authority are satisfied—
a
that the draft order meets the basic conditions mentioned in paragraph 8(2), is compatible with the Convention rights and complies with the provision made by or under sections 61E(2), 61J and 61L, or
b
that the draft order would meet those conditions, be compatible with those rights and comply with that provision if modifications were made to the draft order (whether or not recommended by the examiner),
a referendum in accordance with paragraph 14, and (if applicable) an additional referendum in accordance with paragraph 15, must be held on the making by the authority of a neighbourhood development order.
5
The order on which the referendum is (or referendums are) to be held is the draft order subject to such modifications (if any) as the authority consider appropriate.
6
The only modifications that the authority may make are—

d
modifications specifying a period under section 61L(2)(b) or (5), and
e
modifications for the purpose of correcting errors.
7
The area in which the referendum is (or referendums are) to take place must, as a minimum, be the neighbourhood area to which the proposed order relates.
8
If the authority consider it appropriate to do so, they may extend the area in which the referendum is (or referendums are) to take place to include other areas (whether or not those areas fall wholly or partly outside the authority's area).
9

SCHEDULE 4C

Community right to build orders
Section 61Q

Introduction
1
1
This Schedule makes special provision about a particular type of neighbourhood development order, which is to be known as a “community right to build order”.
2
In their application to community right to build orders, the provisions of this Act relating to neighbourhood development orders have effect subject to the provision made by or under this Schedule.
3
In its application to community organisations, section 61G (meaning of “neighbourhood area”) has effect subject to the provision made by this Schedule.

Meaning of “community right to build order”
2
1
A neighbourhood development order is a community right to build order if—
a
the order is made pursuant to a proposal made by a community organisation,
b
the order grants planning permission for specified development in relation to a specified site in the specified neighbourhood area, and
c
the specified development does not exceed prescribed limits.
2
Regulations under sub-paragraph (1)(c) may prescribe a limit by reference to—
a
the area in which the development is to take place,
b
the number or type of operations or uses of land constituting the development, or
c
any other factor.
3
In this paragraph “
specified
” means specified in the community right to build order.

Meaning of “community organisation”
3
1
For the purposes of this Schedule a “community organisation” is a body corporate—
a
which is established for the express purpose of furthering the social, economic and environmental well-being of individuals living, or wanting to live, in a particular area, and
b
which meets such other conditions in relation to its establishment or constitution as may be prescribed.
2
Regulations under sub-paragraph (1)(b) may make provision in relation to—
a
the distribution of profits made by the body to its members,
b
the distribution of the assets of the body (in the event of its winding up or in any other circumstances),
c
the membership of the body, and
d
the control of the body (whether by the exercise of voting rights or otherwise).

Proposals by community organisations for community right to build orders
4
1
A community organisation is authorised for the purposes of a community right to build order to act in relation to a neighbourhood area (whether or not any part of the neighbourhood area falls within the area of a parish council) if—
a
the area mentioned in paragraph 3(1)(a) consists of or includes the neighbourhood area, and
b
at the time the proposal for the order is made more than half of the members of the organisation live in the neighbourhood area.
2
Accordingly, the community organisation is in that case to be regarded as a qualifying body for the purposes of section 61E.
3
Nothing in section 61F is to apply in relation to community right to build orders except subsections (12)(a) and (13)(d) of that section.
4
In particular, the reference in section 61F(10) to a neighbourhood development order is not to include a reference to a community right to build order (in a case where a community organisation is also a neighbourhood forum).
5
But a local planning authority may decline to consider a proposal for a community right to build order or other neighbourhood development order if—
a
another proposal has been made for a community right to build order or other neighbourhood development order,
b
the other proposal is outstanding, and
c
the authority consider that the development and site to which the proposals relate are the same or substantially the same.
6
If the authority decline to consider the proposal, they must notify the person making the proposal of that fact and of their reasons for declining to consider it.
7
A proposal for a community right to build order must state that the proposal is for such an order.
5
1
A community organisation is to be regarded as a relevant body for the purposes of section 61G if—
a
the area specified in the application made by the organisation consists of or includes the area mentioned in paragraph 3(1)(a), and
b
at the time the application is made more than half of the members of the organisation live in the area specified in the application.
2
The application made by the community organisation may specify any area within the local planning authority's area, irrespective of whether or not any part of the specified area falls within the area of a parish council.
3
This paragraph applies only if the application by the community organisation under section 61G is made in connection with a proposal (or an anticipated proposal) for a community right to build order.
Development likely to have significant effects on environment
etc
6
1
A local planning authority must decline to consider a proposal for a community right to build order if they consider that—
a
the specified development falls within Annex 2 to the
EIA
directive and is likely to have significant effects on the environment by virtue of factors such as its nature, size or location, or
b
the specified development is likely to have significant effects on a qualifying European site (whether alone or in combination with other plans or projects) and is not directly connected with or necessary to the management of that site.
2
In determining whether or not the specified development is within sub-paragraph (1)(a), the authority must take into account any relevant criteria mentioned in Annex 3 to the
EIA
directive.
3
If the authority decline to consider the proposal as a result of sub-paragraph (1), they must notify the community organisation making the proposal of that fact and of their reasons for declining to consider it.
4
Regulations may make provision requiring the publication of any decisions made by a local planning authority under this paragraph.
5
In this paragraph—
- “
the
EIA
directive
” means Council Directive
85/337/
EEC
on the assessment of the effects of certain public and private projects on the environment (as amended from time to time),
- “

the Conservation of Offshore Marine Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 (S.I. 2017/1013)
, or
  2. a European site within the meaning of
the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017
, and
- “
specified
” means specified in the community right to build order.
Examination of proposals for community right to build orders

7
The provisions of Schedule 4B have effect in relation to community right to build orders with the following modifications.
8
Any reference in that Schedule to section 61E(2) includes a reference to paragraph 2 of this Schedule.
9
Any reference in that Schedule to section 61F includes a reference to paragraph 4 of this Schedule.
10
1
The provision made by sub-paragraphs (2) to (5) of this paragraph is to have effect instead of paragraph 12(4) to (6) and (10) of that Schedule.
2
If the examiner's report recommends that the draft order is refused, the authority must refuse the proposal.
3
If the examiner's report recommends that the draft order is submitted to a referendum (with or without modifications), a referendum in accordance with paragraph 14 of that Schedule must be held on the making by the authority of a community right to build order.
4
The order on which the referendum is to be held is the order that the examiner's report recommended be submitted to a referendum subject to such modifications (if any) as the authority consider appropriate.
5
The only modifications that the authority may make are—
a
modifications that the authority consider need to be made to secure that the order does not breach, and is otherwise compatible with,
assimilated
obligations
,

modifications that the authority consider need to be made to secure that the order is compatible with the Convention rights (within the meaning of the Human Rights Act 1998), and
c
modifications for the purpose of correcting errors.
6
In consequence of the provision made by sub-paragraphs (2) to (5) of this paragraph—
a

b
that Schedule has effect as if paragraph 15 (and references to that paragraph) were omitted.
7
Any reference in this Act or any other enactment to paragraph 12 of Schedule 4B includes a reference to that paragraph as modified in accordance with this paragraph.

Use of land
11
1
Regulations may make provision for securing that in prescribed circumstances—
a
an enfranchisement right is not exercisable in relation to land the development of which is authorised by a community right to build order, or
b
the exercise of an enfranchisement right in relation to that land is subject to modifications provided for by the regulations.
2
Each of the following is an “enfranchisement right”—
a
the right under Part 1 of the Leasehold Reform Act 1967 to acquire the freehold of a house (enfranchisement),
b
the right under Chapter 1 of Part 1 of the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 (collective enfranchisement in case of tenants of flats), and
c
the right under section 180 of the Housing and Regeneration Act 2008 (right to acquire social housing).
3
The regulations may—
a
confer discretionary powers on the Secretary of State, a community organisation or any other specified person, and
b
require notice to be given in any case where, as a result of the regulations, an enfranchisement right is not exercisable or is exercisable subject to modifications.

Different provision made by regulations for community right to build orders
12
1
The provision that may be made by regulations under any provision of this Act relating to neighbourhood development orders includes different provision in relation to community right to build orders.
2
Sub-paragraph (1) is not to be read as limiting in any way the generality of section 333(2A) (which provides that regulations may make different provision for different purposes).

1
Where—
a
planning permission for development consisting of the winning and working of minerals or involving the depositing of refuse or waste materials is granted, and

3
An aftercare condition may either—
a
specify the steps to be taken; or
b
require that the steps be taken in accordance with a scheme (in this Act referred to as an “aftercare scheme”) approved by the mineral planning authority.
4
A mineral planning authority may approve an aftercare scheme in the form in which it is submitted to them or may modify it and approve it as modified.
5
The steps that may be specified in an aftercare condition or an aftercare scheme may consist of planting, cultivating, fertilising, watering, draining or otherwise treating the land.
6
Where a step is specified in a condition or a scheme, the period during which it is to be taken may also be specified, but no step may be required to be taken after the expiry of the aftercare period.

the land was in use for agriculture at the time of the grant of the planning permission or had previously been used for that purpose and had not at the time of the grant been used for any authorised purpose since its use for agriculture ceased; and
c
the Minister has notified the mineral planning authority of the physical characteristics of the land when it was last used for agriculture,
the land is brought to the required standard when its physical characteristics are restored, so far as it is practicable to do so, to what they were when it was last used for agriculture.
2
In any other case where the use specified in an aftercare condition is a use for agriculture, the land is brought to the required standard when it is reasonably fit for that use.
3
Where the use specified in an aftercare condition is a use for forestry, the land is brought to the required standard when it is reasonably fit for that use.

The biodiversity gain objective is met in relation to development for which planning permission is granted if the biodiversity value attributable to the development exceeds the pre-development biodiversity value of the onsite habitat by at least the relevant percentage.
2
The biodiversity value attributable to the development is the total of—
a
the post-development biodiversity value of the onsite habitat,
b
the biodiversity value, in relation to the development, of any registered offsite biodiversity gain allocated to the development, and
c
the biodiversity value of any biodiversity credits purchased for the development.
3
The relevant percentage is 10%.
4
The Secretary of State may by regulations amend this paragraph so as to change the relevant percentage.

Biodiversity value and the biodiversity metric
3
References to the biodiversity value of any habitat or habitat enhancement are to its value as calculated in accordance with the biodiversity metric.
4
1
The biodiversity metric is a document for measuring, for the purposes of this Schedule, the biodiversity value or relative biodiversity value of habitat or habitat enhancement.
2
The biodiversity metric is to be produced and published by the Secretary of State.
3
The Secretary of State may from time to time revise and republish the biodiversity metric.
4
Before publishing or republishing the biodiversity metric the Secretary of State must consult such persons as the Secretary of State considers appropriate.
5
The Secretary of State may by regulations make transitional provision in relation to the revision and republication of the biodiversity metric.
6
The Secretary of State must lay the biodiversity metric, and any revised biodiversity metric, before Parliament.

Pre-development biodiversity value
5
1
In relation to any development for which planning permission is granted, the pre-development biodiversity value of the onsite habitat is the biodiversity value of the onsite habitat on the relevant date.
2
The relevant date is—
a
in a case in which planning permission is granted on application, the date of the application, and
b
in any other case, the date on which the planning permission is granted.
3
But the person submitting the biodiversity gain plan for approval and the planning authority may agree that the relevant date is to be a date earlier than that specified in sub-paragraph (2)(a) or (b) (but not a date which is before the day on which this Schedule comes into force in relation to the development).
4
This paragraph is subject to paragraphs 6
, 6A, 6B
and 7.
6
If—
a
a person carries on activities on land on or after 30 January 2020 otherwise than in accordance with—
i
planning permission, or
ii
any other permission of a kind specified by the Secretary of State by regulations, and
b
as a result of the activities the biodiversity value of the onsite habitat referred to in paragraph 5(1) is lower on the relevant date than it would otherwise have been,
the pre-development biodiversity value of the onsite habitat is to be taken to be its biodiversity value immediately before the carrying on of the activities.
6A
If—
a
a person carries on activities on land on or after 25 August 2023 in accordance with a planning permission (other than the planning permission referred to in paragraph 5(1)),
b
on the relevant date, development for which that other planning permission was granted—
i
has not been begun, or
ii
has been begun but has not been completed, and
c
as a result of the activities the biodiversity value of the onsite habitat referred to in paragraph 5(1) is lower on the relevant date than it would otherwise have been,
the pre-development biodiversity value of the onsite habitat is to be taken to be its biodiversity value immediately before the carrying on of the activities.
6B
1
This paragraph applies where there is insufficient evidence of the biodiversity value of an onsite habitat immediately before the carrying on of the activities referred to in paragraph 6 or 6A.
2
The biodiversity value of the onsite habitat immediately before the carrying on of the activities referred to in paragraph 6 or 6A is to be taken to be the highest biodiversity value of the onsite habitat which is reasonably supported by any available evidence relating to the onsite habitat.
7
Where planning permission is granted in respect of land which is registered in the biodiversity gain site register under section 100 of the Environment Act 2021, the pre-development biodiversity value of the land is the total of—
a
the biodiversity value of the onsite habitat on the relevant date, and
b
to the extent that it is not included within that value, the biodiversity value of the habitat enhancement which is, on that date, recorded in the register as habitat enhancement to be achieved on the land.

Post-development biodiversity value
8
1
In relation to any development for which planning permission is granted, the post-development biodiversity value of the onsite habitat is the projected value of the onsite habitat as at the time the development is completed.
2
That value is to be calculated by taking the pre-development biodiversity value and—
a
if at the time the development is completed the development will, taken as a whole, have increased the biodiversity value of the onsite habitat, adding the amount of that increase, or
b
if at the time the development is completed the development will, taken as a whole, have decreased the biodiversity value of the onsite habitat, subtracting the amount of that decrease.
This is subject to paragraph 9.
9
1
This paragraph applies in relation to any development for which planning permission is granted where—
a
the person submitting the biodiversity gain plan for approval proposes to carry out works in the course of the development that increase the biodiversity value of the onsite habitat, and
b
the planning authority considers that the increase is significant in relation to the pre-development biodiversity value.
2
The increase in biodiversity value referred to in sub-paragraph (1) is to be taken into account in calculating the post-development biodiversity value of the onsite habitat only if the planning authority is satisfied that the condition in sub-paragraph (3) is met.
3
The condition is that any habitat enhancement resulting from the works referred to in sub-paragraph (1)(a) will, by virtue of—
a
a condition subject to which the planning permission is granted,
b
a planning obligation, or
c
a conservation covenant,
be maintained for at least 30 years after the development is completed.
4
The Secretary of State may by regulations amend sub-paragraph (3) so as to substitute for the period for the time being specified there a different period of at least 30 years.

Registered offsite biodiversity gains
10
1
“
Registered offsite biodiversity gain
” means any habitat enhancement
of an offsite habitat
, where—
a
the enhancement is required to be carried out under a conservation covenant or planning obligation, and
b
the enhancement is recorded in the biodiversity gain site register (as to which, see section 100 of the Environment Act 2021).
1A
For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1) (and without prejudice to paragraphs 3 and 4(1)), a habitat enhancement is calculated as the amount by which the projected value of the offsite habitat as at the end of the maintenance period referred to in section 100(2)(b) of the Environment Act 2021 exceeds its pre-enhancement biodiversity value.
1B
The pre-enhancement biodiversity value of an offsite habitat is the biodiversity value of the offsite habitat on the relevant date.
1C
The relevant date is—
a
the date on which the application is made to register the land subject to the habitat enhancement in the biodiversity gain site register, or
b
such other date as may be specified in the conservation covenant or planning obligation.
1D
But if—
a
a person carries on activities on an offsite habitat on or after 25 August 2023 otherwise than in accordance with—
i
planning permission, or
ii
any other permission of a kind specified by the Secretary of State by regulations, and
b
as a result of the activities the biodiversity value of the offsite habitat is lower on the relevant date than it would otherwise have been,
the pre-enhancement biodiversity value of the offsite habitat is to be taken to be its biodiversity value immediately before the carrying on of the activities.
2
References to the allocation of registered offsite biodiversity gain are to its allocation in accordance with the terms of the conservation covenant or planning obligation referred to in sub-paragraph (1)(a).
3
The biodiversity value of registered offsite biodiversity gain is measured, under the biodiversity metric, in relation to development to which it is allocated.

Biodiversity credits
11
“
Biodiversity credits
” means credits under section 101 of the Environment Act 2021.

Reference to a Planning Inquiry Commission
2
1
Two or more of the matters mentioned in section 101(2) may be referred to the same commission if it appears to the responsible Minister or Ministers that they relate to proposals to carry out development for similar purposes on different sites.
2
Where a matter referred to a commission under section 101 relates to a proposal to carry out development for any purpose at a particular site, the responsible Minister or Ministers may also refer to the commission the question whether development for that purpose should instead be carried out at an alternative site.
3
On referring a matter to a commission, the responsible Minister or Ministers—
a
shall state in the reference the reasons for the reference, and
b
may draw the attention of the commission to any points which seem to him or them to be relevant to their inquiry.

Functions of Planning Inquiry Commission on reference
3
1
A commission inquiring into a matter referred to them under section 101 shall—
a
identify and investigate the considerations relevant to, or the technical or scientific aspects of, that matter which in their opinion are relevant to the question whether the proposed development should be permitted to be carried out, and
b
assess the importance to be attached to those considerations or aspects.
2
If—
a
in the case of a matter mentioned in section 101(2)(a), (b) or (c), the applicant, or
b
in any case, the local planning authority,
so wish, the commission shall give to each of them, and, in the case of an application or appeal mentioned in section 101(2)(a) or (b), also to any person who has made representations relating to the subject matter of the application or appeal which the authority are required to take into account under any provision of a development order made by virtue of section 71(2)(a), an opportunity of appearing before and being heard by one or more members of the commission.
3
The commission shall then report to the responsible Minister or Ministers on the matter referred to them.

A reference to a Planning Inquiry Commission of a proposal that development should be carried out by or on behalf of a government department may be made at any time.
2
A reference of any other matter mentioned in section 101 may be made at any time before, but not after, the determination of the relevant application referred under section 77 or the relevant appeal under section 78 or, as the case may be, the giving of the relevant direction under section 90(1).
3
The fact that an inquiry or other hearing has been held into a proposal by a person appointed by any Minister for the purpose shall not prevent a reference of the proposal to a Planning Inquiry Commission.
4
Notice of the making of a reference to any such commission shall be published in the prescribed manner.
5
A copy of the notice must be served on the local planning authority for the area in which it is proposed that the relevant development will be carried out, and—
a
in the case of an application for planning permission referred under section 77 or an appeal under section 78, on the applicant and any person who has made representations relating to the subject matter of the application or appeal which the authority are required to take into account under any provision of a development order made by virtue of section 71(2)(a);

Requirements relating to Discontinuance of Mineral Working
Section 102(8).

Orders requiring discontinuance of mineral working
1
1
If, having regard to the development plan and to any other material considerations, it appears to a mineral planning authority that it is expedient in the interests of the proper planning of their area (including the interests of amenity)—
a
that any use of land for—
i
development consisting of the winning and working of minerals; or
ii
the depositing of refuse or waste materials,
should be discontinued or that any conditions should be imposed on the continuance of the winning and working or the depositing;
b
that any buildings or works on land so used should be altered or removed; or
c
that any plant or machinery used for the winning and working or the depositing should be altered or removed,
the mineral planning authority may by order require the discontinuance of that use, or impose such conditions as may be specified in the order on the continuance of it or, as the case may be, require such steps as may be so specified to be taken for the alteration or removal of the buildings or works or plant or machinery.
2
An order under this paragraph may grant planning permission for any development of the land to which the order relates, subject to such conditions as may be—
a
required by paragraph 1 of Schedule 5; or

Where it appears to the mineral planning authority—
a
that development of land—
i
consisting of the winning and working of minerals; or
ii
involving the depositing of mineral waste,
has occurred; but
b
the winning and working or depositing has permanently ceased,
the mineral planning authority may by order—
i
prohibit the resumption of the winning and working or the depositing; and
ii
impose, in relation to the site, any such requirement as is specified in sub-paragraph (3).
2
The mineral planning authority may assume that the winning and working or the depositing has permanently ceased only when—
a
no winning and working or depositing has occurred, to any substantial extent, at the site for a period of at least two years; and
b
it appears to the mineral planning authority, on the evidence available to them at the time when they make the order, that resumption of the winning and working or the depositing to any substantial extent at the site is unlikely.
3

b
it appears to the mineral planning authority, on the evidence available to them at the time when they make the order, that a resumption of such winning and working or depositing to a substantial extent is likely.
4
In this Act “
steps for the protection of the environment
” means steps for the purpose—
a
of preserving the amenities of the area in which the land in, on or under which the development was carried out is situated during the period while the winning and working or the depositing is suspended;

SCHEDULE 15

Preliminary
Section 302(5).
1
In this Schedule an application under section 302(3) and a determination given on such an application are referred to respectively as “
a compliance determination application
” and “a compliance determination”.

Making of compliance determination applications
2
1
A compliance determination application may be made with respect to any land—
a
by the owner or occupier of the land, or
b
by any person who proves that he has or intends to acquire an interest in the land which will be affected by a compliance determination or that he has borne any of the cost of carrying out works on the land during the war period.
2
In the case of land owned or occupied by or on behalf of the Crown, or leased to, or to a person acting on behalf of, the Crown, or land with respect to which it is proved that there is held, or intended to be acquired, by or on behalf of the Crown an interest in the land which will be affected as mentioned in sub-paragraph (1) or that any of the cost there mentioned has been borne by the Crown, a compliance determination application may be made by any person acting on behalf of the Crown.
3
A compliance determination application shall be accompanied by such plans and other information as are necessary to enable the application to be determined.
4
1
The authority to whom a compliance determination application is made shall within 14 days from the receipt of the application publish notice of it in one or more local newspapers circulating in the area in which the land is situated and serve notice of it on any person appearing to the authority to be specially affected by the application.
2
The authority shall take into consideration any representations made to them in connection with the application within 14 days from the publication of the notice.

Determination of applications
5
1
Where a compliance determination application is made to an authority the authority shall determine whether the works or use in question fail to comply with any planning control which the authority are responsible for enforcing and, if so, shall specify the control in question.
2
Where the authority determine that works or a use fail so to comply they shall further determine whether having regard to all relevant circumstances the works or use shall, notwithstanding the failure, be deemed so to comply, either unconditionally or subject to such conditions as to the time for which the works or use may be continued, the carrying out of alterations, or other matters, as the authority think expedient.

Appeals against compliance determinations or failure to make such determinations
6
1
Where the applicant is aggrieved by a compliance determination, or where a person by whom representations have been made as mentioned in paragraph 4 is aggrieved by such a determination, he may appeal to the Secretary of State.
2
The applicant may also appeal if he is aggrieved by the failure of the authority to determine the application within two months from the last day on which representations under paragraph 4 may be made and has served notice on the authority that he appeals to the Secretary of State.
3
An appeal under this paragraph must be made within the period of 28 days after the applicant has notice of the determination or, in the case of an appeal under sub-paragraph (2), after the applicant has served notice on the authority of the appeal, or within such extended period as the Secretary of State may allow.
7
1
On such an appeal the Secretary of State may give, in substitution for the determination, if any, given by the authority, such determination as appears to him to be proper having regard to all relevant circumstances, or, if he is satisfied that the applicant was not a person entitled to make the application, may decide that the application is not to be entertained.
2
At any stage of the proceedings on such an appeal to him the Secretary of State may, and shall if so directed by the High Court, state in the form of a special case for the opinion of the High Court any question of law arising in connection with the appeal.
8
Subject to paragraph 9 and to any determination or decision of the Secretary of State on an appeal under paragraph 7, any compliance determination shall be final and any such failure to give a determination as mentioned in paragraph 6(2) shall be taken on the service of the notice there mentioned as a final refusal by the authority to entertain the application, and any determination or decision of the Secretary of State on an appeal under paragraph 7 shall be final.

Fresh applications where alteration in circumstances
9
Where a compliance determination has been given that works on land or a use of land shall not be deemed to comply with planning control or shall be deemed to comply with it subject to conditions, then if a person entitled to make a compliance determination application with respect to the land satisfies the authority or on appeal the Secretary of State that there has been a material change of circumstances since the previous application was determined, he may make a subsequent application and on such an application the authority or on appeal the Secretary of State may substitute for the compliance determination such determination as appears proper having regard to all relevant circumstances.

References of application to Secretary of State
10
1
If it appears to the Secretary of State that it is expedient, having regard to considerations affecting the public interest (whether generally or in the locality concerned), that any compliance determination application to an authority or any class or description of such applications, should instead of being determined by the authority be referred to him for decision, he may give directions to the authority requiring that application, or applications of that class or description, to be so referred.
2
This Schedule shall apply to any such reference as if it were an appeal under paragraph 6(2) following failure of the authority to entertain the application.

Information
11
The Secretary of State may give directions to any authority responsible for enforcing planning control requiring them to furnish him with such information with respect to compliance determination applications received by them as he considers necessary or expedient in connection with the exercise of his functions under this Schedule.

Opportunity for hearing
12
On any compliance determination application or any appeal under this Schedule the applicant or, in the case of an application referred to the Secretary of State for decision or an appeal to the Secretary of State, the applicant or the authority responsible for enforcing the planning control in question, may require the authority by whom the application is to be determined or, as the case may be, the Secretary of State to give him or them an opportunity before the application or appeal is determined of appearing before and being heard by a person appointed by the authority or, as the case may be, the Secretary of State for the purpose.

Notice of proposed enforcement
13
1
This paragraph applies where before the relevant date any person proposes to take steps for enforcing a planning control in the case of such works or such a use as mentioned in subsection (1) of section 302.
2
Subject to sub-paragraph (4), unless a compliance determination application has been made in relation to the land which has not been finally determined, that person shall serve on every owner and occupier of the land not less than 28 days’ notice of the proposal, and if within that period any person makes such an application in relation to the land and within seven days of making it serves on the person proposing to take steps as aforesaid notice that the application has been made, no steps for enforcing the control shall be taken until the final determination of the application.
3
If such an application has been made which has not been finally determined, no such steps shall be taken until the final determination of it.
4
No notice shall be required under sub-paragraph (2) if steps for enforcing a planning control in the case of any works on land are begun within 28 days of the final determination of a compliance determination application in relation to the land.
5
For the purpose of this paragraph a compliance determination application shall be treated as having been finally determined notwithstanding that a subsequent application may be made under paragraph 9.

Power of entry
14
1

Service of notices
15
1
Any notice or other document required or authorised to be served under this Schedule may be served on any person either by delivering it to him, or by leaving it at his proper address or by post.
2
Any such document required or authorised to be served upon an incorporated company or body shall be duly served if it is served upon the secretary or clerk of the company or body.
