Status:

This is the original version (as it was originally made). This item of legislation is currently only available in its original format.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

The Crossrail Act 2008 makes provision for the nominated undertaker or nominated undertakers to make requests for planning approval to relevant local authorities. Schedule 7 to the Act provides that the nominated undertaker or nominated undertakers may appeal to the Secretary of State for Transport and the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government in certain circumstances against the decision of such an authority.

These Regulations prescribe the form of the notice of appeal (regulation 5) and a form of questionnaire to be completed by the authority (regulation 8).

The Regulations also provide for notice of the appeal to be served on the authority and on relevant third parties (regulations 6 and 7 respectively), and specify time limits for the submission of representations and any supporting documentation (regulations 7 to 10). Regulation 11 allows the Secretaries of State to grant additional time for the submitting of representations. Regulation 12 provides for determination of the appeal to proceed taking account of only material submitted within the relevant time limit, and also enables determination to proceed in the absence of representations where that time limit has expired.

A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.

Impact Assessments

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
