Commentary on provisions of the Act Schedule 32: Extension of planning permission for statutory undertakers Controls on proposed development
Paragraphs 3 and 4 contain provisions enabling the Secretary of State to intervene with respect to such statutory undertaker works, by imposing conditions on the extended planning permission provided by this Schedule, or to disapply the extended permission. This can be either to ensure compliance with an undertaking given to the Select Committees of either the House of Lords or House of Commons, or (in the case of the imposition of conditions) to ensure the environmental impacts of the development do not materially differ from those set out in the environmental statement.
