Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order revokes and replaces S.I. 1987/178 which was made on 10th February 1987.

This Order brings into operation on 2nd March 1987 paragraph 8 of Schedule 11 to the Housing and Planning Act 1986.

Paragraph 8(1) substitutes a new subsection (2) in section 282 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1971. This is a minor drafting improvement which makes no change of substance.

Paragraph 8(2) substitutes a new paragraph 5(3) of Schedule 9 to the Town and Country Planning Act 1971 (determination of appeals by appointed person) applying section 250(2) to (5) of the Local Government Act 1972 (local inquiries: evidence and costs) to an inquiry held under paragraph 5 of Schedule 9. At present only the Secretary of State is entitled under paragraph 5(3) to make orders as to the costs of the parties at an inquiry and as to the parties by whom the costs are to be paid. The substituted paragraph entitles a person appointed by the Secretary of State to hold an inquiry to make such orders as well.

Note as to Earlier Commencement Orders
