- Enquiry type
The applicant queried the status of its application under s131 and s132 of the Planning Act 2008 (as amended); made to the Common Land Team at the Planning Inspectorate on 15 August 2013.
Advice given
The Planning Inspectorate advised that the provisions of the Growth and Infrastructure Act 2013 (the GIA2013) mean that, as this application was made after 24 June 2013, it would need to be examined and reported upon by the appointed Examining Authority as part of the examination of the application for development consent; removing the need for certification by Defra and the potential for public inquiry.
As such, the application for certification made to the Common Land Team had been retrieved by the Major Applications and Plans Directorate for consideration by the appointed ExA in the manner described above. The associated documentation was published to the A30 Temple to Higher Carblake Improvement project page on the National Infrastructure pages of the Planning Portal website on 2 October 2013.
Representations should be made on this material in the usual way; and the applicant should note that the ExA, once appointed, may request changes to the application documents to reflect the statutory changes brought about by the GIA2013.
