EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Order grants temporary planning permission in relation to the land and buildings at Napier Barracks, Gate 14, North Road, Folkestone, Kent, CT20 3EZ (“Napier Barracks”).
Article 3 preserves the effect of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 No. 596 to ensure that the development rights permitted under that Order continue to apply in relation to Napier Barracks.
Article 4 grants planning permission for development consisting of a change of use of Napier Barracks to use for the provision of facilities, support or accommodation to certain asylum seekers or failed asylum seekers, together with their dependants.
Article 5 imposes a condition that the use of Napier Barracks under article 4 is only permitted where the Secretary of State approves an operational management plan in relation to the site, and where Napier Barracks is operated in accordance with that plan.
The permission granted by article 4 ceases at the end of 20th September 2026, or before that date if the Secretary of States permits possession of the whole of Napier Barracks to enable building operations to be undertaken pursuant to a specified outline planning permission.
