Assumptions as to grant of planning permissionC113

1

In a case where—

a

the interest is to be compulsorily acquired for purposes which involve the carrying out of proposals of the acquiring authority for development of the land in which the interest subsists or part of it, and

b

on the date on which the vesting order becomes operative there is not in force planning permission for that development,

it shall be assumed that planning permission would be granted in respect of that land or that part of it, as the case may be, such as would permit development of it in accordance with the proposals of the acquiring authority.

2

It shall be assumed that planning permission would be granted in respect of that land or any part of it, for development of any class specified in Schedule 1 to the Land Development Values (Compensation) Act (Northern Ireland) 1965F1 (development not constituting new development).

3

Where a certificate is issued under Article 15 or 17, it shall be assumed that any planning permission which, according to the certificate might reasonably have been expected to be granted in respect of that land or part of it would be so granted, but, where any conditions are, in accordance with those Articles, specified in the certificate, only subject to those conditions and, if any future time is so specified, only at that time.
