These Regulations are made under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (c. 8) and the Levelling-up and Regeneration Act 2023 (c. 55) (“the 2023 Act”). They set out the process to be followed when a local authority exercises the powers given to it in Part 10 of the 2023 Act to arrange for a rental auction to be carried out in respect of qualifying high-street premises. They also amend the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (S.I. 2015/596) (“the General Permitted Development Order”) to provide for temporary planning permission for a change of use of such premises to a suitable high-street use for the duration of a tenancy granted following a rental auction held under Part 10 of the 2023 Act.
