The Land Compensation Development Order 1974
This Order revokes and replaces the Land Compensation Development Order 1963. The Order prescribes the procedure for determining, and for appealing against, certificates under section 17 of the Land Compensation Act 1961 and for obtaining information as to such certificates. It requires a county planning authority to send a copy of every certificate issued by them to the district planning authority in which part of the land is situated and requires a district planning authority to send a copy of every certificate it issues to the county planning authority if the certificate specifies a class or classes of development which is a county matter within the meaning of the Local Government Act 1972 (c.70). A duty is also imposed on a London borough and the Common Council of the City of London to send to the Greater London Council a copy of every certificate they issue specifying a class of development for which a planning application would be determined by that Council. The Order also prescribes the procedure for securing that where conditions in such certificates are specified by reference to general requirements copies of such requirements shall be supplied, unless the requirements have previously been made public at the offices of both the county and district planning authority or, in the case of certificates relating to land in Greater London, at the office of the London borough or Common Council of the City of London and the Greater London Council.
