Part 13: General Schedule 7: Plan making Section 15L: Exclusion of certain representations Effect
Section 15L replicates the former provision in legislation for the Secretary of State or a local planning authority to disregard a representation made in relation to a local plan, supplementary plan or minerals and waste plan if, in substance, such representation is made in respect of anything that is done or proposed under certain orders or schemes made under the Highways Act 1980 or the New Towns Act 1981.
	This might include, for example, comments relating to a trunk road scheme as defined in the Highways Act 1980, or an area designated under the New Towns Act 1981. Those Acts set out specific procedures for considering the representations and objections concerned.
