(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations make provision as to the procedure relevant to reviews carried out by the Welsh Ministers in relation to their decision to include a monument in the schedule of monuments compiled and maintained by them under section 1 of the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979; or, in the case of a monument which is identified in that schedule by reference to a map maintained by the Welsh Ministers, to make an amendment which adds to the area shown for a monument on that map.
They include, in particular, provision in relation to the following matters—
The classes of review to be decided by an appointed person instead of the Welsh Ministers, the grounds for review, procedural requirements relevant to the making of an application and associated requirements (Part 2);
Procedural provision relevant to the extent that a review is carried out on the basis of written representations (Part 3);
Procedural provision relevant to the extent that a review is carried out by means of a hearing (Part 4);
Procedural provision relevant to the extent that a review is carried out by means of a public local inquiry (Part 5);
Supplementary matters (Part 6);
Procedural provision relevant to the making of a decision on a review (Part 7); and
Provision about costs that may be required to be paid in connection with a review (Part 8).
The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, it was not considered necessary to carry out a Regulatory Impact Assessment as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations. The Impact Assessment prepared for the Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2016 is relevant and is available from Historic Environment Services (Cadw), Welsh Government, Plas Carew, Cardiff, CF15 7QQ and on the Welsh Government’s website at www.wales.gov.uk.
