Part 1: Planning Neighbourhood Planning Section 2: Notification of applications to neighbourhood planning bodies
This section amends Schedule 1 to the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 to require a local planning authority, or the Secretary of State, to notify any parish council or designated neighbourhood forum of any future planning applications or alterations to planning applications in their area. This requirement applies when there is a neighbourhood development plan which forms part of the statutory development plan, or when there is a post-examination neighbourhood development plan (as defined in section 1 of the Act) in place, for a neighbourhood area all or part of which falls within the authority’s area. The requirement does not apply where the parish council or designated neighbourhood forum has given notification in writing that they do not wish to be notified of any such application.
	This section extends to England and Wales but applies to England only.
