In accordance with s.128 of and Sch.13 to the Act, the Infrastructure Planning Commission (the “IPC”) is to be abolished and the powers conferred by the Planning Act 28 in respect of applications for development consent for nationally significant infrastructure projects are to be transferred to the Secretary of State. Formal transfer of such powers will have been achieved by April 1, 212; the IPC will cease to exist on March 31, 212. The Localism Act 211 (Commencement No.2 and Transitional and Saving Provision) Order 212 (SI 212/57) was made on January 11, 212. The Order brought part of the relevant provisions of the 211 Act into effect thereby enabling interim arrangements to be made for the transitional period which will occur in respect of applications for development consent already made to the IPC, but which have not yet been determined. These arrangements are to be made pursuant to a direction given by the Secretary of State.Further delegated legislation relevant to the IPC has recently been included in the Encyclopedia, including:The Infrastructure Planning (Changes to and Revocation of Development Consent Orders) Regulations 211 (SI 211/255)The Infrastructure Planning (Environmental Impact Assessment) (Amendment) Regulations 211 (SI 211/2741)Section232 of the Localism Act 211 provides for the repeal and replacement of ss 14-18 of the Land Compensation Act 1961 relevant to: (a) the planning assumptions that are to be made in determining claims for compensation following compulsory acquisition of land, and (b) applications for and appeals relevant to certificates of appropriate alternative development.Annotations to these revised provisions will be included in future Releases.
