The Town and Country Planning (Compensation) (England) (Amendment) Regulations 2016

These Regulations amend the Town and Country Planning (Compensation) (England) Regulations 2015 (“the 2015 Regulations”) to add a new class of development to the list of permitted development rights for which compensation on withdrawal of the right is limited in various ways provided in the 2015 Regulations. The new right – Class PA – permits change of use from premises in light industrial use to dwellinghouses, and has been inserted into Part 3 of Schedule 2 to the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (“the 2015 Order) by amendments set out in the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) (Amendment) Order 2016.
