The GPDO requires that a ‘plan’ must be submitted with the prior approval application and, in practice, this should include drawings of any necessary building operations in respect of which prior approval is also being sought. Paragraph W.(12) requires that the development must be carried out in accordance with the details approved by the LPA or, where prior approval is not required (or where the 56-day period has expired without the applicant being notified of the LPA’s determination of the prior approval application), in accordance with the details provided in the prior approval application.<br />Martin H Goodallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07079479984296674469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8170718846507476773.post-25510931249400261422016-09-20T10:37:45.330+01:002016-09-20T10:37:45.330+01:00Hi Martin,

I'm also a bit confused as to how plans are dealt with, with a planning application it seems clear that the decision applies to the 'approved plans' only, but I'm not sure how this works with PD rights - are you in position to comment on these matters?

My guess is that the Second Edition should have a longer shelf life than the First Edition, and I will stick my neck out and predict that we won’t need a Third Edition for at least another two years, if then. (I could be proved wrong, but this is my best guess based on various factors that we have weighed up in deciding to go ahead with the Second Edition now).<br />Martin H Goodallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07079479984296674469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8170718846507476773.post-1990639472974956922016-09-11T21:09:15.010+01:002016-09-11T21:09:15.010+01:00A great book.
