Does the IPC have jurisdiction to accept applications under s73 TCPA 1990 for variation of conditions when the development concerned benefits from an extant planning permission but is also a nationally significant infrastructure project?

Advice given

The IPC cannot give advice on the TCPA regime; those are matters for the relevant local planning authority and the applicant. The question of whether an application can be submitted to the IPC if it falls within the definition of an NSIP would be determined by considering s31 of the PA 2008 and the relevant definition of NSIPs.
