62ZA Wales: notice that application is not valid E+W

(1) This section applies where an application is made to a local planning authority in Wales—

(a) for planning permission, or

(b) for any consent, agreement or approval required by any condition or limitation subject to which planning permission has been granted.

(2) In the case of an application for planning permission, if the authority think the application (or anything accompanying it) does not comply with a validation requirement imposed under section 62, they must give the applicant notice to that effect.

(3) The notice must—

(a) identify the requirement in question, and

(b) set out the authority's reasons for thinking the application does not comply with it.

(4) In the case of an application for a consent, agreement or approval mentioned in subsection (1)(b), the authority must give notice to the applicant if they think that—

(a) the application does not comply with the terms of the planning permission in question, or

(b) a period prescribed under section 74(1)(e) or 78(2) does not begin to run in relation to the application,

by virtue of a failure to include information in the application or to provide documents or other materials with it (whether at all or in a particular manner).

(5) The notice must identify—

(a) the information, documents or materials in question, and

(b) the paragraph of subsection (4) which the authority think applies.

(6) A development order may make provision about the giving of notice under this section (including provision about information to be included in the notice and how and when the notice is to be given).

(7) A requirement imposed under section 62 is a validation requirement in relation to an application for planning permission if the effect of the application failing to comply with the requirement is that—

(a) the local planning authority must not entertain the application (see section 327A), or

(b) the period prescribed under section 78(2) does not begin to run in relation to the application.]
