Clause 9 - Determination or withdrawal of appeals
High Hedges Bill
11:15 am
Mr John Taylor (Solihull, Conservative)
Clause 9 describes the Secretary of State's powers in determining appeals. In practice, of course, those powers will be exercised by the planning inspectorate. The clause enables it to allow or dismiss appeals, either in total or in part, to quash or vary remedial notices and to issue such notices in cases in which the local authority decides not to do so.
