Regulation 14
1. The Secretary of State shall as soon as reasonably practicable make an appropriate assessment of the implications for the European site of the project permitted by the decision or consent in view of that site’s conservation objectives for the purpose of determining whether the project will adversely affect the integrity of the site.
2. For the purposes of the assessment the Secretary of State—
(a)may require any person interested in the relevant land to supply her with such information as she may reasonably think necessary;
(b)shall consult English Nature and have regard to any representations made by them within such reasonable time as she may specify; and
(c)may, if she considers it appropriate, consult members of the public.
3. Unless, following the assessment, the Secretary of State is satisfied that the project permitted by the decision or consent will not adversely affect the integrity of the European site, and paragraph (7) of regulation 13 does not apply, she shall, in the case of a decision, revoke that decision and, in the case of a consent, either revoke that consent or make such modifications to the consent as shall appear to her to be necessary to ensure that the project will not adversely affect the integrity of the European site and she shall notify her decision to all persons who appear to her to have an interest in the relevant land.
4. Subject to paragraph 5 below, a revocation or modification of a decision or a consent in pursuance of which works have been commenced or completed shall not affect so much of those works as have already been carried out.
5. If, where a project which is subject to a decision made under paragraph 3 above has commenced, it appears to the Secretary of State to be necessary to safeguard the integrity of the European site, she may by notice require the person responsible for carrying out such works or any person interested in the relevant land to carry out such works of reinstatement as may be reasonable in the circumstances and any person who carries out works in compliance with such a requirement shall be entitled, on making a claim in accordance with paragraph 8 below, to recover from the Secretary of State compensation in respect of any expenses reasonably incurred by him in that behalf.
6. Regulation 15 shall apply to a decision made in accordance with paragraph 3 above and to a notice served in accordance with paragraph 5 above.
7. If, following a decision under paragraph 3 above, a person has incurred expenditure in carrying out work which is rendered abortive by the revocation or modification or has otherwise sustained loss or damage which is directly attributable to the revocation or modification, he shall be entitled to be paid compensation on submitting a claim in accordance with paragraph 8 below.
8. A claim for compensation payable under paragraph 5 or 7 above shall be submitted to the Secretary of State within six weeks of notification of the decision in respect of which compensation is payable and shall be accompanied by such evidence as the Secretary of State may reasonably require.

10. Nothing in this regulation shall affect anything done in pursuance of a decision or consent before the date the site became a European site.
Regulation 15(8)
1. In this Schedule “appointed person” means a person appointed under regulation 15(8) and “appointment” means an appointment under that regulation.
2. A appointment must be in writing and—
(a)may relate to any particular appeal or matter specified in the appointment or to appeals or matters of a description so specified;
(b)may provide for any function to which it relates to be exercisable by the appointed person either unconditionally or subject to the fulfilment of such conditions as may be specified in the appointment; and
(c)may, by notice in writing given to the appointed person, be revoked at any time by the Secretary of State in respect of any appeal or matter which has not been determined by the appointed person before that time.
3. Subject to the provisions of this Schedule, an appointed person shall, in relation to any appeal or matter to which his appointment relates, have the same powers and duties as the Secretary of State has under paragraphs (7), (10), (11) and (12) of regulation 15.
4.—(1) The provisions of this paragraph, instead of regulation 15(6), shall apply to an appeal which falls to be determined by an appointed person.
(2) If the appellant expresses a wish to appear before and be heard by the appointed person, the appointed person shall give him an opportunity of appearing and being heard.
(3) Whether or not an appellant has asked for an opportunity to appear and be heard, the appointed person—
(a)may hold a local inquiry or other hearing in connection with the appeal or matter, and
(b)shall, if the Secretary of State so directs, hold a local inquiry in connection with the appeal or matter.
(4) Whether either sub-paragraph (2) or (3) above applies, the appointed person shall notify his decision that a hearing or a local inquiry, as the case may be, is to be held to the appellant and to any persons who notified the Secretary of State that they wished to make representations in accordance with regulation 15(5).
(5) Where an appointed person holds a local inquiry or other hearing by virtue of this Schedule, an assessor may be appointed by the Secretary of State to sit with the appointed person at the inquiry or hearing and advise him on any matters arising, notwithstanding that the appointed person is to determine the appeal or matter.
(6) Subject to regulation 15(9), the costs of the hearing or local inquiry held under this Schedule shall be defrayed by the Secretary of State.
5.—(1) Where under paragraph (2)(c) above the appointment of the appointed person is revoked in respect of any appeal or matter, the Secretary of State shall, unless she proposes to determine the appeal or matter herself, appoint another person under regulation 15(8) to determine the appeal or matter instead.
(2) Where such a new appointment is made, the consideration of the appeal or matter, or any local inquiry or other hearing in connection with it, shall be begun afresh.
(3) Nothing in sub-paragraph (2) above shall require any person to be given an opportunity of making fresh representations or modifying or withdrawing any representations already made.
6.—(1) Anything done or omitted to be done by an appointed person in, or in connection with, the exercise or purported exercise of any function to which the appointment relates shall be treated for all purposes as done or omitted to be done by the Secretary of State.
(2) Sub-paragraph (1) above shall not apply—
(a)for the purposes of so much of any contract made between the Secretary of State and the appointed person as relates to the exercise of the function; or
(b)for the purposes of any criminal proceedings brought in respect of anything done or omitted to be done as mentioned in that sub-paragraph.
