(5) The planning permission that may be granted on an application under this section does not include outline planning permission (and for this purpose “outline planning permission” has the meaning given in section 92).

(6) An application within subsection (7) is not to be treated as being a nationally significant development application, unless it is an application of a description prescribed in regulations made by the Welsh Ministers.

(7) An application is within this subsection if it is an application for planning permission for the development of land without complying with conditions subject to which a previous planning permission was granted.

(c) the way in which and time in which the notification is to be given.

(4) On receiving notification of an application from a person in accordance with this section, the Welsh Ministers must give notice to the person that the notification has been accepted.

(5) Any step taken in respect of an application that is proposed to be made under section 62D, if taken before the date on which notice is given under subsection (4) in respect of the application, is not to be treated for the purposes of this Act as constituting consultation with any person about the application.

(6) A development order may make provision about the giving of notice by the Welsh Ministers under subsection (4).

(7) That provision may include provision—

(a) about the form and content of the notice to be given under subsection (4);

“Wales: option to make application to Welsh Ministers

62M Option to make application directly to Welsh Ministers

(1) If the following conditions are met, a qualifying application that would otherwise have to be made to the local planning authority may (if the applicant so chooses) instead be made to the Welsh Ministers.

(2) The first condition is that the local planning authority is designated by the Welsh Ministers for the purposes of this section.

(3) The second condition is that—

(a) the development to which the application relates, in the case of a qualifying application within subsection (4)(a), or

(b) the development for which the outline planning permission has been granted, in the case of a qualifying application within subsection (4)(b),

is development of a description prescribed by regulations made by the Welsh Ministers.

(4) A qualifying application, for the purposes of this section, is—

(a) an application for planning permission for the development of land in Wales, provided that the development to which it relates is not development of national significance for the purposes of section 62D;

(b) an application for approval of a matter that, for the purposes of section 92, is a reserved matter in the case of an outline planning permission for the development of land in Wales.

(5) But an application within subsection (6) that would otherwise be a qualifying application for the purposes of this section is not to be treated as such unless it is an application of a description prescribed in regulations made by the Welsh Ministers.

(6) An application is within this subsection if it is an application for planning permission for the development of land without complying with conditions subject to which a previous planning permission was granted.

62N Designation for the purposes of section 62M

(1) In deciding whether to designate a local planning authority for the purposes of section 62M, or whether to revoke a designation, the Welsh Ministers must apply only criteria that satisfy the following conditions.

(2) The first condition is that the Welsh Ministers have consulted each local planning authority in Wales about the criteria.

(3) The second condition is that the criteria are set out in a document that the Welsh Ministers have laid before the National Assembly for Wales.

(4) The third condition is that the 21-day period has ended without the National Assembly having during that period resolved not to approve the document.

(5) The fourth condition is that the Welsh Ministers have published the document (whether before, during or after the 21-day period) in whatever way they think fit.

(6) In this section, “the 21-day period” means the period of 21 days beginning with the day on which the document is laid before the National Assembly for Wales under subsection (3), disregarding any time when the National Assembly is dissolved or is in recess for more than four days.

(7) The power to designate a local planning authority for the purposes of section 62M, or to revoke a designation, is exercisable by notice in writing to the authority.

(8) The Welsh Ministers must publish (in whatever way they think fit) a copy of any notice given to an authority under subsection (7).

(9) An urban development corporation may not be designated for the purposes of section 62M.

62O Option to make application to Welsh Ministers: connected applications

(1) This section applies where an application (the “principal application”) is made to the Welsh Ministers under section 62M.

(2) A connected application that would otherwise have to be made to the local planning authority or hazardous substances authority may (if the applicant so chooses) instead be made to the Welsh Ministers, provided that it is made on the same day as the principal application.

(3) A connected application, for this purpose, is an application under the planning Acts that—

(a) relates to land in Wales,

(b) is an application of a description prescribed by regulations made by the Welsh Ministers, and

(c) is considered by the person making it to be connected to the principal application.

(4) Subsection (5) applies if an application is made to the Welsh Ministers under this section, on the basis that it is a connected application, instead of to a local planning authority or hazardous substances authority, but the Welsh Ministers consider—

(a) for planning permission, or

(b) for any consent, agreement or approval required by any condition or limitation subject to which planning permission has been granted.

(b) set out the authority’s reasons for thinking the application does not comply with it.

(4) In the case of an application for a consent, agreement or approval mentioned in subsection (1)(b), the authority must give notice to the applicant if they think that—

(b) a period prescribed under section 74(1)(e) or 78(2) does not begin to run in relation to the application,

by virtue of a failure to include information in the application or to provide documents or other materials with it (whether at all or in a particular manner).

(5) The notice must identify—

(a) the information, documents or materials in question, and

(b) the paragraph of subsection (4) which the authority think applies.

(6) A development order may make provision about the giving of notice under this section (including provision about information to be included in the notice and how and when the notice is to be given).

(b) that the application is not one to which the requirement applies;

(c) that the requirement is not a validation requirement in relation to the application;

(d) in the case of a requirement imposed under subsection (3) of section 62, that the requirement does not comply with subsection (4A) of that section.

(3) In a case relating to an application for a consent, agreement or approval mentioned in section 62ZA(1)(b), the appeal may be brought on any one or more of the following grounds—

(a) that the application included the information, or was accompanied by the documents or other materials, identified in the notice given under section 62ZA(4);

(b) in a case where notice is given under section 62ZA(4)(a), that the provision of the information, documents or materials is not required in order to comply with the terms of the planning permission;

(c) in a case where notice is given under section 62ZA(4)(b), that the period prescribed under section 74(1)(e) or 78(2) (as the case may be) begins to run in relation to the application irrespective of whether the information, documents or materials are provided.

(4) The appeal must be made by giving notice that complies with any requirements prescribed by a development order.

(6) The validity of an appointed person’s decision on an appeal may not be questioned by the appellant or the local planning authority in legal proceedings on the ground that the appeal ought to have been determined by the Welsh Ministers and not by an appointed person, unless the appellant or the authority challenge the appointed person’s power to determine the appeal before the person’s decision is given.

62ZD Appeals under section 62ZB: determination by Welsh Ministers in place of appointed person

(1) The Welsh Ministers may direct that an appeal under section 62ZB which would otherwise be determined by an appointed person is instead to be determined by the Welsh Ministers.

(b) the appellant, and

(c) the local planning authority.

(a) they must appoint a person (the “new appointee”) under section 62ZC(1) to determine the appeal;

(b) anything done by or on behalf of the Welsh Ministers in connection with the appeal that might have been done by an appointed person is, unless the new appointee directs otherwise, to be treated as having been done by the new appointee;

(c) subject to that, section 62ZC applies to the appeal as if no direction under subsection (1) had been given.”
