EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations.)


These Regulations amend the Planning (Development Plans) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1991.

Regulation 4 of those Regulations is amended to extend the period within which objections to a development plan, alteration, instrument of repeal or replacement plan shall be made from 6 weeks to 8 weeks.

A new regulation 4A is inserted to provide for the public notification of objections and inviting inspection of and written representations about those objections. It also specifies that the time period for receipt of such representations shall be within 8 weeks of the Department first making copies of those objections available at any place to the public.

Regulation 11 is amended to provide for the consideration of both objections and representations on objections to a development plan at a public local inquiry.

Regulation 13 is amended to apply regulation 4A to modifications to a development plan, alteration, repeal or replacement plan.
