Where an area plan or town plan has been prepared and approved for a local authority area, and if it appears to the Minister to be expedient in the interests of securing the proper control of development in such area, he may, with the agreement of that local authority, by order published in the Gazette, constitute that local authority as the interim planning authority for that area or part thereof (reg. 4). A local authority may, after consultation with, and with the agreement of, the Minister, prepare and submit to the Minister for his approval a town plan or area plan, as the case may be, for that part of the area under its jurisdiction to which these Regulations apply (reg. 6). Except where otherwise required by the Minister, a local authority shall before submitting any plans to the Minister take such steps as may be necessary to acquaint the owners of any land affected by such plans and particulars with the proposals contained therein (reg. 9). Subject to these Regulations, no person shall carry out development in an interim planning area except with the consent of the authority under these Regulations empowered to grant consent (reg. 10). Every person requiring consent for development shall make application to the interim planning authority for the area in which the land concerned is situated or where no such authority exists for the area, to the Central Authority (reg. 11). Regulations 12 to 15 concern the handling of applications and decisional procedures and legal proceedings. The remaining regulations provide for enforcement of development control.

Amended by: Land Planning Act. (1970)
