EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations are made under powers given to the Welsh Ministers by the Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2023 (the “2023 Act”). The 2023 Act forms part of a code of law relating to the historic environment of Wales. These Regulations also form part of that Code.
The 2023 Act protects monuments of special historic interest. A monument may comprise a building, structure, work, cave or excavation, or site. The 2023 Act provides that the Welsh Ministers must maintain a record (referred to as a “schedule”) of monuments in Wales that are of national importance. Particular types of works may only be carried out to a “scheduled monument” if they are authorised by the Welsh Ministers. This authorisation is called “scheduled monument consent” and is granted under Part 2 of the 2023 Act.
The framework for applications for scheduled monument consent is set out in sections 14 and 15 of the 2023 Act. These Regulations make further provision about such applications relating to scheduled monuments in Wales.
Regulation 2 makes further provision about the form and content of an application for scheduled monument consent, how to make such an application and the documents that must be included with it.
Regulation 3 amends the Transport and Works Applications (Listed Buildings, Conservation Areas and Ancient Monuments Procedure) Regulations 1992 (the “1992 Regulations”). The 1992 Regulations align the procedures for making applications and holding inquiries where an application made under section 6 of the Transport and Works Act 1992 also requires scheduled monument consent.
Regulation 4 makes consequential amendments to the Developments of National Significance (Wales) Regulations 2016.
Regulation 5 revokes the Ancient Monuments (Applications for Scheduled Monument Consent) (Wales) Regulations 2017.
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.
