These Regulations amend, in relation to England and Wales, regulations 14 of the Town and Country Planning General Regulations 1992 in relation to expenses for the recovery of land, which is in a condition adversely affecting the amenity of a neighbourhood. Under section 215 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, a local planning authority may in certain circumstances serve a notice on the owner and occupier of such land, requiring steps to be taken within a specified period to remedy its condition. If the steps are not taken within the specified period, the authority may, pursuant to section 219 of that Act, enter on the land and take those steps itself, recovering the expenses incurred from the landowner. These Regulations provide that such expenses are a charge which is binding on successive owners of the land.
