HC Deb 20 July 1976 vol 915 c454W
Mr. Wigley

asked the Secretary of State for Wales in what proportion of the appeal cases submitted to him this year under paragraph 5, Schedule 11, to the Town and Country Planning Act 1971 it has been necessary for him to inform appellants under paragraph 5(2) of Schedule 11 to that Act that he has required more than the stipulated 28 days before coming to a decision.

Mr. Barry Jones

Paragraph 5 of Schedule 11 to the Town and Country Planning Act 1971 requires certain applications for listed buildings consent to be notified to my right hon. and learned Friend. It does not relate to appeals. It has been necessary to give notice to local planning authorities under paragraph 5(2) of the 1971 Act in 47 of the 64 applications notified to my right hon. and learned Friend this year.
