Planning Act 2008

Sections 38: Model provisions

110.This section allows the Secretary of State to prescribe model provisions that developers may use if required to prepare a draft order to accompany an application for an order granting development consent. The Commission must have regard to any model provisions when making an order granting development consent. A similar power to issue model clauses already exists in section 8 of the Transport and Works Act 1992 (see the Transport and Works (Model Clauses for Railways and Tramways) Regulations 2006, SI 2006/1954), and model clauses are used extensively by promoters.
