Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997

Compensation S

15 (1) This paragraph applies in a case where— S

(a) an application made under paragraph 9 in respect of an active Phase I or II site is finally determined, and

(b) the requirements of either sub-paragraph (2) or (3) are satisfied.

(2) The requirements of this sub-paragraph are—

(a) that the conditions to which the relevant planning permissions relating to the site are to be subject were determined by the planning authority,

(b) no appeal was made under paragraph 11(1)(a) in respect of that determination or any such appeal was withdrawn or dismissed, and

(c) the authority gave notice under paragraph 10(2)(d) and either—

(i) that notice stated that, in the authority’s opinion, the restriction of working rights in question would be such as to prejudice adversely to an unreasonable degree either of the matters referred to in paragraph 10(2)(d)(i) and (ii), or

(ii) that notice stated that, in the authority’s opinion, the restriction in question would not be such as would so prejudice either of those matters but an appeal under paragraph 11(1) in respect of the giving of the notice has been allowed.

(3) The requirements of this sub-paragraph are that the conditions to which the relevant planning permissions are to be subject were determined by the Secretary of State (whether upon an appeal under paragraph 11(1)(a) or upon a reference under paragraph 13) and—

(a) in a case where those conditions were determined upon an appeal under paragraph 11(1)(a) either—

(i) the planning authority gave notice under paragraph 10(2)(d) stating that, in their opinion, the restriction of working rights in question would be such as to prejudice adversely to an unreasonable degree either of the matters referred to in paragraph 10(2)(d)(i) and (ii), or

(ii) the authority gave a notice under paragraph 10(2)(d) stating that, in their opinion, the restriction in question would not be such as would so prejudice either of those matters but an appeal under paragraph 11(1)(b) in respect of the giving of that notice has been allowed,

or

(b) in a case where those conditions were determined upon a reference under paragraph 13, the Secretary of State gave notice under paragraph 10(2)(d) stating that, in his opinion, the restriction of working rights in question would be such as to prejudice adversely to an unreasonable degree either of the matters referred to in paragraph 10(2)(d)(i) and (ii).

(4) In a case to which this paragraph applies Parts IV and X of this Act shall have effect as if an order made under section 65 had been confirmed by the Secretary of State under section 66 at the time when the application in question was finally determined and, as so confirmed, had effect to modify those permissions to the extent specified in sub-paragraph (5).

(5) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (4), the order which is treated by virtue of that sub-paragraph as having been made under section 65 is one whose only effect adverse to the interests of any person having an interest in the land or minerals comprised in the mineral site is to restrict working rights in respect of the site to the same extent as the relevant restriction.

(6) For the purposes of Schedule 13 and of any regulations made under that Schedule, the permissions treated as being modified by the order mentioned in sub-paragraph (4) shall be treated as if they were planning permissions for development which neither consists of nor includes any minerals development.
