(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations are made under section 11 of and paragraph 7 of Schedule 6A to the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1972 as amended by section 3 of the Town and Country Planning (Costs of Inquiries Etc.) Act 1995.
The Regulations set out a standard daily amount which planning authorities shall pay in respect of each day on which a person appointed to conduct a local plan or simplified planning zone inquiry or hearing is engaged in such work. Regulation 5 sets the standard daily amount at £275.
Regulation 6 amends the Town and Country Planning (Structure and Local Plans) (Scotland) Regulations 1983. This minor amendment is necessary to make it clear that remuneration of a person appointed to conduct a local plan inquiry is payable under these new Regulations rather than the 1983 Regulations.
