These Regulations implement, in England and Wales, Council Directive 85/337/EC on the assessment of the effects of certain public and private projects on the environment, as amended by Council Directive 97/11/EC, in relation to applications to mineral planning authorities to determine the conditions to which a planning permission is subject. The 1999 Regulations impose procedural requirements in relation to the consideration of applications for planning permission under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990. The main amendment to the 1999 Regulations is the insertion of a new regulation 26A Regulation 2(5) applies the provisions of the 1999 Regulations to ROMP applications as they apply to applications for planning permission, subject to the modifications and additions set out in regulation 2(5). "ROMP application" means an application to a relevant mineral planning authority to determine the conditions to which a planning permission is to be subject under: (a) 2(2) of Schedule 2 to the Planning and Compensation Act 1991 (b) 9(1) of Schedule 13 or 6(1) of Schedule 14 to the Environment Act 1995.
