EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)


Section 12(2) of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 enables the Secretary of State by order to direct that if an area of a National Park falls within more than one region of those, except London, specified in Schedule 1 of the Regional Development Agencies Act 1998, it is treated as falling wholly within one of them.

This Order directs that the North York Moors National Park and the Yorkshire Dales National Park are treated as falling within the Yorkshire and Humber Region and that the Peak District National Park is treated as falling within the East Midlands Region.

The Order is relevant for the purposes of Part 1 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004. That Part provides, amongst other matters, for regional spatial strategies relating to the development and use of land within each of the regions referred to above.
