HC Deb 24 November 1971 vol 826 c367W
80. Mr. Chapman

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what steps he proposes to take to warn owners of land of the expiry of certain planning permissions on 1st April, 1972, under the Town and Country Planning Act, 1968.

Mr. Graham Page

I am issuing shortly copies of a poster for display by local authorities in appropriate places reminding the public that outline planning permissions granted before 1st April, 1969, will in general lapse on 1st April, 1972; application for approval of reserve matters or for renewal of permission should be made by that date. The attention of the Press will be drawn to this.
