Do the NPSs, in particular EN-1, 5 & 6 have a "fixed life" or are they in place until superseded?

Advice given

Evening Jonathan

Thanks for your email.

We would recommend that you review Sections 5 to 13 of the Planning Act 2008 (PA2008), which relates to National Policy Statements (NPS).

A copy of the PA2008 can be found on the National Infrastructure Planning website under the tab “Legislation and Advice”, for ease of reference please find the link below to the PA2008:

http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2008/29/contents

We draw your attention to section 6 of the PA2008, regarding the review of a NPS and where such a statement could be withdrawn and/or amended following the review.

We trust you find this information useful.

Kind Regards

Emré
