INFRASTRUCTURE PLANNING

The Planning Act 2008 (c. 29) provides for the grant of development consent for development which is, or forms part of, a nationally significant infrastructure project. These Regulations implement, in relation to such projects, Council Directive 85/337/EEC on the assessment of the effects of certain public and private projects on the environment (O.J. No. L 175, 5.7.1985, p. 40), as amended by Council Directive 97/11/EC (O.J. No. L 73, 14.3.1997, p.5).
