Schedule 5, Paragraphs 6 and 7: Compensation Part 7, Chapter 3: General Section 157: Use of buildings in respect of which development consent granted
260.This section clarifies that where an order granting development consent grants consent for the erection, extension, alteration or re-erection of a building, the order may specify the purposes for which the building may be used. If it does not do so, the consent is presumed to authorise the use of the building for the purpose for which it is designed.
