These Regulations are made in consequence of amendments made to the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 1995 (S.I. 1995/418) (“the General Permitted Development Order”), by the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (Amendment and Consequential Provisions) (England) Order 2014 (S.I. 2014/564) (“the 2014 Order”), which came into force on 6th April. The 2014 Order introduced four new classes of permitted development rights for change of use into Part 3 of Schedule 2 to the General Permitted Development Order. Two of the new classes, Class IA and Class MB, allow change of use to residential purposes and include permission for limited building operations.
