which is deemed to have been granted by virtue of paragraph 77 of Schedule 22 to the 1972 Act (development authorised under interim development orders after 10th November 1943).
(2)An old mining permission shall, if an application under Part II of this Schedule to determine the conditions to which the permission is to be subject is finally determined, have effect as from the final determination as if granted on the terms required to be registered.
(3)If no such development has, at any time in the period of 2 years ending with 16th May 1991, been carried out to any substantial extent anywhere in, on or under the land to which an old mining permission relates, that permission shall not authorise any such development to be carried out after 24 January 1992 unless—
(a)the permission has effect in accordance with sub-paragraph (2), and
(b)the development is carried out after such an application is finally determined.
(4)An old mining permission shall—
(a)if no application for the registration of the permission is made under Part II of this Schedule, cease to have effect on the day following the last date on which such an application may be made, and
(b)if such an application is refused, cease to have effect on the day following the date on which the application is finally determined.
(5)An old mining permission shall, if—
(a)such an application is granted, but
(b)an application under Part II of this Schedule to determine the conditions to which the permission is to be subject is required to be served before the end of any period and is not so served,
cease to have effect on the day following the last date on which the application to determine those conditions may be served.
(6)Subject to sub-paragraph (3), this paragraph—
(a)shall not affect any development carried out under an old mining permission before an application under Part II of this Schedule to determine the conditions to which the permission is to be subject is finally determined or, as the case may be, the date on which the permission ceases to have effect, and
(b)shall not affect any order made or having effect as if made under paragraphs 1 to 9 and 11.
