Commentary on Sections Part 7: Crown Application of Planning Acts Section 87: Old mining permissions
116.This section deals with old mining permissions granted in the period 1943-1948 that were validated by the 1947 Town and County Planning Act. The section enables Crown bodies holding such permissions to have the opportunity to register such permissions and apply for the determination of new conditions, on the same terms that applied to all other permissions when the Planning and Compensation Act 1991 was implemented.
