If an application that was previously approved under the old planning regime was amended, would a new application need to be made to the IPC?

Advice given

If the changes to the approved application were considered significant enough for a new application and the proposed project falls within the thresholds of a Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project (NSIP) application, then it would be submitted to the IPC under the new process. The caller was advised to take his own legal advice to what was considered a significant enough of a change to the application.
