The Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (Scotland) Amendment Order 1992

Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order amends the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (Scotland) Order 1992 as follows:—

(a) it inserts a definition of “licensed premises” which was omitted in error from the Order;

(b) it substitutes a new provision in place of article 8(2)(b) which has the effect of correcting the erroneous reference in that provision to the saving of various specified directions as if they had been given “under this article”;

(c) it deletes from the definition of “terrace house” at sub-paragraph (3)(c)(ii) of Class 1 of Schedule 1 the words “at the end of a row” which were included in error;

(d) it makes a minor amendment for the purpose of clarifying sub-paragraph (2)(c) of Class 3 of Schedule 1;

(e) in relation to agricultural and forestry development consisting of the formation or alteration of a private way it removes the requirement to apply to the planning authority for a determination as to whether prior approval as to siting and means of construction is required. This requirement was included in error; and

(f) it amends sub-paragraph (2)(f) of Class 68 of Schedule 1 so that the development permitted by way of Class 68 does not apply within a national scenic area. This was the position immediately before the Order came into force.
