EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends, as regards England only, the Town and Country Planning (General Development Procedure) Order 1995 by omitting sub-paragraph (c) of article 2B(15). That sub-paragraph prohibits the making of a local development order which would grant planning permission for development that is likely to have a significant effect on a European site as defined in regulation 10 of the Conservation (Natural Habitats, &c.) Regulations 1994 (S.I. 1994/2716). The revocation is consequential on regulation 5(36) of the Conservation (Natural Habitats, &c.) (Amendment) Regulations (S.I. 2007/1843), which inserts provision to similar effect as article 2B(15)(c) in regulation 64A of the 1994 Regulations.
