Coming into force
18th March 2017
An application has been made to the Secretary of State under section 37 of the Planning Act 2008(1) (the “2008 Act”) and in accordance with the Infrastructure Planning (Applications: Prescribed Forms and Procedure) Regulations 2009(2) for an Order under sections 114, 115 and 120 of the 2008 Act.
The application was examined by a single appointed person (appointed by the Secretary of State) in accordance with Chapter 4 of Part 6 of the 2008 Act and the Infrastructure Planning (Examination Procedure) Rules 2010(3).
The single appointed person, having considered the application with the documents that accompanied it and the representations made and not withdrawn, has submitted a report with a recommendation to the Secretary of State.
The Secretary of State, having considered the report and recommendation of the single appointed person, has taken into account the environmental information in accordance with regulation 3 of the Infrastructure Planning (Environmental Impact Assessment) Regulations 2009(4), and has had regard to the documents and matters referred to in section 104(2) of the 2008 Act.
The Secretary of State, having decided the application has determined to make this Order giving effect to the proposals comprised in the application on terms which in the opinion of the Secretary of State are not materially different from those proposed in the application.
The Secretary of State is satisfied that the special category land (as identified in the book of reference), when burdened with rights imposed by this Order, will be no less advantageous than it was before to persons in whom it is vested, other persons, if any, entitled to rights of common or other rights and the public, and that accordingly, section 132(3) of the 2008 Act applies.

(2) The appeal process is as follows—
(a)any appeal by the undertaker must be made within 42 days of the date of the notice of the decision or determination giving rise to the appeal as referred to in sub-paragraph (1);
(b)the undertaker must submit the appeal documentation to the Secretary of State and must on the same day provide copies of the appeal documentation to the discharging authority and any Requirement consultee and must on the same date affix a notice to a conspicuous object or objects on or near the site of the works which are the subject of such appeal which must give details of the decision of the discharging authority and of the application and notice that an appeal has been made together with the address within the locality where appeal documents may be inspected;
(c)as soon as is practicable after receiving the appeal documentation, the Secretary of State must appoint a person to consider the appeal (“the appointed person”) and must notify the appeal parties of the identity of the appointed person and the address to which all correspondence for the appointed person’s attention should be sent;
(d)the discharging authority and any Requirement consultee (if applicable) must submit their written representations together with any other representations received by them under the application referred to in sub-paragraph (1) or the notice of appeal referred to in sub-paragraph (2)(a) to the appointed person in respect of the appeal within 10 business days of the notice of appointment in sub-paragraph (2)(c) and must ensure that copies of their written representations and any other representations as sent to the appointed person are sent to each other and to the undertaker on the day on which they are submitted to the appointed person;
(e)the appeal parties must make any counter-submissions to the appointed person within 10 business days of receipt of written representations pursuant to sub-paragraph (2)(d); and
(f)the appointed person must make a decision and notify it to the appeal parties, with reasons, as soon as reasonably practicable.

(5) Any further information required under sub-paragraph (4) must be provided by the party from whom the information is sought to the appointed person and to other appeal parties by the date specified by the appointed person. The appointed person must notify the appeal parties of the revised timetable for the appeal on or before that day. The revised timetable for the appeal must require submission of written representations to the appointed person within 10 business days of the date by which the further information is to be submitted but must otherwise be in accordance with the process and time limits set out in paragraphs 4(2)(c) - (2)(e).

and may deal with the application as if it had been made to the appointed person in the first instance.
(7) The appointed person may proceed to a decision on an appeal taking into account such written representations as have been sent within the relevant time limits and in the appointed person’s sole discretion such written representations as have been sent out with the relevant time limits.
(8) The appointed person may proceed to a decision even though no written representations have been made within the relevant time limits, if it appears to the appointed person that there is sufficient material to enable a decision to be made on the merits of the case.
(9) The decision of the appointed person on an appeal is final and binding on the parties, and a court may entertain proceedings for questioning the decision only if the proceedings are brought by a claim for judicial review.
(10) If an approval is given by the appointed person under this Schedule, it is to be treated as an approval for the purposes of this Order as if it had been given by the discharging authority. The discharging authority must confirm any determination given by the appointed person in identical form in writing but a failure to give such confirmation (or a failure to give it in identical form) is not be taken to affect or invalidate the effect of the appointed person’s determination.
(11) Save where a direction is given under sub-paragraph (12) requiring the costs of the appointed person to be paid by the discharging authority, the reasonable costs of the appointed person must be met by the undertaker.
(12) On application by the discharging authority or the undertaker, the appointed person may give directions as to the costs of the appeal and as to the parties by whom the costs of the appeal are to be paid. In considering whether to make any such direction and the terms on which it is to be made, the appointed person must have regard to Planning Practice Guidance or any circular or guidance which may from time to time replace it.

(2) If, for the purpose of executing any works in, on, over or under any land purchased, held, appropriated or used under this Order or in, on, over or under any land within the Order limits, the undertaker requires the removal of any apparatus placed in that land, it must give to the statutory undertaker in question written notice of that requirement, together with a plan and section of the work proposed.
(3) If alternative apparatus or any part of such apparatus is to be constructed as a consequence of the removal of apparatus placed on the land referred to in sub-paragraph (2), the statutory undertaker in question must, on receipt of a written notice to that effect from the undertaker, as soon as reasonably possible use its best endeavours to obtain the necessary facilities and rights in other land in which the alternative apparatus is to be constructed.
(4) The statutory undertaker in question must, after the alternative apparatus to be provided or constructed has been agreed or settled by arbitration in accordance with article 34 (arbitration), and after the grant to the statutory undertaker of any such facilities and rights as are referred to in sub-paragraph (3), proceed without unnecessary delay to construct and bring into operation the alternative apparatus and subsequently to remove any apparatus required by the undertaker to be removed under the provisions of this Part.

(5) Nothing in this paragraph precludes the undertaker from submitting at any time or from time to time, but in no case less than 28 days before commencing the execution of any works, a new plan, section and description instead of the plan, section and description previously submitted, and if this is done, the provisions of this paragraph 5 apply to and in respect of the new plan, section and description.
(6) The undertaker is not required to comply with sub-paragraph (1) in a case of emergency but in that case it must give to the statutory undertaker in question notice as soon as is reasonably practicable and a plan, section and description of those works as soon as reasonably practicable subsequently and must comply with sub-paragraph (2) in so far as is reasonably practicable in the circumstances.

(b)apparatus (whether existing apparatus or apparatus substituted for existing apparatus) is placed at a depth greater than the depth at which the existing apparatus was situated,
and the placing of apparatus of that type or capacity or of those dimensions or the placing of apparatus at that depth, as the case may be, is not agreed by the undertaker or, in default of agreement, is not determined by arbitration in accordance with article 34 (arbitration) to be necessary, then, if such placing involves cost in the construction of works under this Part exceeding those which would have been involved if the apparatus placed had been of the existing type, capacity or dimensions, or at the existing depth, as the case may be, the amount which but for this paragraph would be payable to the statutory undertaker in question by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) is to be reduced by the amount of that excess.
(4) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (3)—
(a)an extension of apparatus to a length greater than the length of existing apparatus must not be treated as a placing of apparatus of greater dimensions than those of the existing apparatus; and
(b)where the provision of a joint in a cable is agreed, or is determined to be necessary, the consequential provision of a jointing chamber or of a manhole must be treated as if it also had been agreed or had been so determined.
(5) An amount which but for this sub-paragraph would be payable to a statutory undertaker in respect of works by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) must, if the works include the placing of apparatus provided in substitution for apparatus placed more than 7 years and 6 months earlier so as to confer on the statutory undertaker any financial benefit by deferment of the time for renewal of the apparatus in the ordinary course, be reduced by the amount which represents that benefit.
7.—(1) Subject to sub-paragraphs (2) and (3), if by reason, or in consequence, of the construction of any such works referred to in paragraph 4(2), any damage is caused to any apparatus (other than apparatus the repair of which is not reasonably necessary in view of its intended removal for the purposes of those works) or property of a statutory undertaker, or there is any material interruption in any service provided, or in the supply of any goods, by any statutory undertaker, the undertaker must—
(a)bear and pay the proper and reasonable cost actually incurred by that statutory undertaker in making good such damage or restoring the supply; and
(b)make proper and reasonable compensation to that statutory undertaker for any other reasonable and proper expenses, loss, damages, penalty or costs actually incurred by the statutory undertaker,
by reason or in consequence of any such damage or interruption.
(2) Nothing in sub-paragraph (1) imposes any liability on the undertaker with respect to any damage or interruption as far as it is attributable to the act, neglect or default of a statutory undertaker, its officers, servants, contractors or agents.
(3) A statutory undertaker must give the undertaker reasonable prior written notice of any claim or demand, and no settlement or compromise may be made without the consent of the undertaker.
8. If in consequence of the exercise of the powers of this Order the access to the statutory undertaker’s apparatus is materially obstructed, the undertaker must provide such reasonable alternative means of access to such apparatus as will enable the statutory undertaker to operate, maintain, repair or replace or use the apparatus.
9. Any difference or dispute arising between the statutory undertaker and the undertaker under this Part must, unless otherwise agreed in writing between the statutory undertaker and the undertaker, be referred to and settled by arbitration under article 34 (arbitration).
10.—(1) Where, under this Part or anywhere else under this Order, the statutory undertaker is required to give its consent or approval in respect of any matter, that consent or approval must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(4) Such protective works as may be agreed between the parties or settled by arbitration in accordance with article 34 (arbitration) must be constructed by the undertaker at a reasonable and necessary cost, with all reasonable dispatch. The undertaker must not commence the construction of the specified works until the engineer has notified the undertaker that such of those protective works as are required to be undertaken prior to commencement of construction have been completed to the engineer’s reasonable satisfaction. If the engineer has not confirmed his reasonable satisfaction of the completion of the protective works within 21 days of the undertaker’s notification, the engineer is deemed to have confirmed his or her reasonable satisfaction.
5. Without limiting its obligations as to the delivery of plans to CRT under the foregoing provisions of this Part, the undertaker must consult, collaborate and respond constructively to any approach, suggestion, proposal or initiative made by CRT as to the design and appearance of the specified works, including the materials to be used for their construction, and must have regard to reasonable views as may be expressed by CRT in response to such consultation pursuant in particular to the requirements imposed on CRT by section 22 (general environmental and recreational duties) of the British Waterways Act 1995 and to the reasonable interest of CRT in preserving and enhancing the environment of the Waterway.

(b)apparatus (whether existing apparatus or apparatus substituted for existing apparatus) is placed at a depth greater than the depth at which the existing apparatus was situated,
and the placing of apparatus of that type or capacity or of those dimensions or the placing of apparatus at that depth, as the case may be, is not agreed by the undertaker or, in default of agreement, is not determined by arbitration in accordance with article 34 (arbitration) to be necessary, then, if such placing involves cost in the construction of works under this Part exceeding that which would have been involved if the apparatus placed had been of the existing type, capacity or dimensions, or at the existing depth, as the case may be, the amount which apart from this sub-paragraph would be payable to the statutory undertaker by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) must be reduced by the amount of that excess save where it is not possible in the circumstances to obtain the existing type of apparatus at the same capacity and dimensions or place at the existing depth in which case full costs must be borne by the undertaker.
(4) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (3)—
(a)an extension of apparatus to a length greater than the length of existing apparatus must not be treated as a placing of apparatus of greater dimensions than those of the existing apparatus; and
(b)where the provision of a joint in a pipe or cable is agreed, or is determined to be necessary, the consequential provision of a jointing chamber or of a manhole must be treated as if it also had been agreed or had been so determined.
(5) An amount which apart from this sub-paragraph would be payable to a statutory undertaker in respect of works by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) must, if the works include the placing of apparatus provided in substitution for apparatus placed more than 7 years and 6 months earlier so as to confer on the statutory undertaker any financial benefit by deferment of the time for renewal of the apparatus in the ordinary course, be reduced by the amount which represents that benefit.
12.—(1) Subject to sub-paragraphs 12(2) and 12(3), if by reason or in consequence of the construction of any such works authorised by this Part or in consequence of the construction, use, maintenance or failure of any of the authorised works by or on behalf of the undertaker or in consequence of any act or default of the undertaker (or any person employed or authorised by the undertaker) in the course of carrying out such works, including without limitation works carried out by the undertaker under this Part or any subsidence resulting from any of these works, any damage is caused to any apparatus (other than apparatus the repair of which is not reasonably necessary in view of its intended removal for the purposes of those works) or property of the statutory undertaker, or there is any interruption in any service provided, or in the supply of any goods, by the statutory undertaker, or the statutory undertaker becomes liable to pay any amount to any third party, the undertaker must—
(a)bear and pay on demand the cost reasonably and properly incurred by the statutory undertaker in making good such damage or restoring the supply; and
(b)indemnify the statutory undertaker for any other proper and reasonable expenses, loss, demands, proceedings, damages, claims, penalty or costs incurred by or recovered from the statutory undertaker, by reason or in consequence of any such damage or interruption or the statutory undertaker becoming liable to any third party as aforesaid other than arising from any default of the statutory undertaker.
(2) The fact that any act or thing may have been done by the statutory undertaker with the agreement of and on behalf of the undertaker or in accordance with a plan submitted by the undertaker and approved by the statutory undertaker or in accordance with any requirement of the statutory undertaker or under its supervision does not (unless sub-paragraph 12(3) applies), excuse the undertaker from liability under the provisions of sub-paragraph 12(1) unless the statutory undertaker fails to carry out and execute the works properly with due care and attention and in a skilful and workman like manner or in a manner that does not accord with the approved plan.
(3) Nothing in sub-paragraph 12(1) imposes any liability on the undertaker in respect of—
(a)any damage or interruption to the extent that it is attributable to the neglect or default of the statutory undertaker, its officers, servants, contractors or agents; and
(b)any authorised works or any other works authorised by this Part carried out by the statutory undertaker as an assignee, transferee or lessee of the undertaker with the benefit of the Order pursuant to section 156 of the 2008 Act or article 8 (consent to transfer benefit of Order) subject to the proviso that once such works become apparatus, any authorised works yet to be executed and not falling within this paragraph 12(3)(b) are subject to the full terms of this Part including this paragraph 12.
(4) The statutory undertaker must give the undertaker reasonable written notice of any such third party claim or demand and no settlement or compromise must, unless payment is required in connection with a statutory compensation scheme, be made without first consulting the undertaker and taking into account undertaker’s representations.
13. Save to the extent provided for to the contrary elsewhere in this Part or by agreement in writing between the statutory undertaker and the undertaker, nothing in this Part affects the provisions of any enactment or agreement regulating the relations between the undertaker and the statutory undertaker in respect of any apparatus laid or erected in land belonging to the undertaker on the date on which this Order is made.
14.—(1) Where in consequence of the proposed construction of any of the authorised works, the undertaker or the statutory undertaker requires the removal of apparatus under paragraph 7(2) or the statutory undertaker makes requirements for the protection or alteration of apparatus under paragraphs 9 or 10, the undertaker must use its best endeavours to co-ordinate the execution of the works in the interests of safety and the efficient and economic execution of the authorised works and taking into account the need to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the statutory undertaker’s undertaking, and the statutory undertaker must use its best endeavours to co-operate with the undertaker for that purpose.
(2) To avoid doubt, whenever the statutory undertaker’s consent, agreement or approval to is required in relation to plans, documents or other information submitted by the undertaker or the taking of action by the statutory undertaker, it must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
15. If in consequence of the powers granted under this Order the access to any apparatus is materially obstructed, the undertaker must provide such alternative means of access to such apparatus as will enable the statutory undertaker to maintain or use the apparatus no less effectively than was possible before such obstruction.
16. Any difference or dispute arising between the undertaker and the statutory undertaker under this Part must, unless otherwise agreed in writing between the undertaker and the statutory undertaker, be determined by arbitration in accordance with article 34 (arbitration).
17. When submitting the plans to the statutory undertaker for approval under paragraph 8 or paragraph 9 the undertaker must send the plans to the statutory undertaker in hard copy by recorded post and by email to such address as the statutory undertaker may notify the undertaker in writing from time to time and clearly bearing the name of the project and contact details for responses, unless otherwise agreed with statutory undertaker.
