47 Alteration of structure plan.

1

Where proposals for the alteration or replacement of a structure plan have been prepared and submitted to the Secretary of State, a local planning authority proposing to make, alter, repeal or replace a local plan may apply to him for a direction under subsection (2).

2

On such an application the Secretary of State may direct that it shall be assumed for the purpose of the making, alteration, repeal or replacement of the local plan that the structure plan proposals have been approved by him, subject to such modifications as may from time to time be proposed by him and notified to the county planning authority.

3

Such a direction ceases to have effect if the Secretary of State rejects the proposals for the alteration or replacement of the structure plan.

4

Before giving such a direction the Secretary of State shall consult—

a

in the case of an application by a county planning authority, any district planning authority whose area is affected by the relevant local plan proposals;

b

in the case of an application by a district planning authority, the county planning authority.

5

A county planning authority shall, on the approval of proposals for the alteration or replacement of a structure plan, consider whether the local plans for areas affected conform generally to the structure plan as altered or, as the case may be, to the new plan.

6

Within the period of one month from the date on which the county planning authority receive notice of the Secretary of State’s approval of the proposals, they shall send—

a

to the Secretary of State, and

b

to every district planning authority responsible for such a local plan,

lists of the local plans so affected which, in their opinion, do and do not so conform.
