Part 5: Community Land Auction Pilots General Section 147: Power to provide for authorities making joint local plans Background
The provisions in Part 5 do not automatically apply to joint local plans, and section 142(5) makes clear that references in that section to a local plan do not include references to a joint local plan.
	Section 147 confers a power on the Secretary of State to apply, by way of CLA regulations, all or some of Part 5 in relation to LPAs who are to prepare a joint local plan, and that in doing so, the provisions can be modified if necessary to ensure that they work in the intended way.
	This section also sets out that where this power is exercised, the CLA regulations must also include provision about how CLA receipts deriving from a joint CLA arrangement are to be shared between the authorities.
