EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

The Town and Country Planning (Development Management Procedure) (England) Order 2010 (S.I. 2010/2184) (“the Development Management Procedure Order”) provides for procedures connected with planning applications in England.

Article 3 of this Order amends article 4 of the Development Management Procedure Order which sets out the requirements for applications which seek permission of a proposed development in principle (“outline applications”) and allows for specific details of the application to be reserved for subsequent approval by the local planning authority at a later stage (“reserved matters”). For such outline applications, article 4 of the Development Management Procedure Order provides that where layout is a reserved matter, the application must state the approximate location of buildings, routes and open spaces and where scale is a reserved matter; the application must state the upper and lower limit for the height, width and length of each building. The effect of the amendment is to remove the requirement to provide these details at the outline stage where layout and scale have been reserved.

Article 4 of this Order amends articles 10 and 29 of the Development Management Procedure Order to provide that, for applications on or after 31st July 2013, the only requirements which are to apply to a particular planning application are those on a ‘local list’ which has been published within 2 years before the planning application is made.

An impact assessment will be prepared in relation to this instrument. The assessment will be placed in the Library of each House of Parliament and copies may be obtained from the Planning Directorate, the Department for Communities and Local Government, Eland House, Bressenden Place, London SW1E 5DU or http://www.communities.gov.uk.
