The Planning Appeals Commission (Decisions on Appeals and Making of Reports) (Amendment) Rules (Northern Ireland) 2015
These Rules amend the Planning Appeals Commission (Decision on Appeals and Making Reports) (No. 2) Rules (Northern Ireland) 2006 by clarifying that a “decision by the appeals commission on an appeal” includes a decision to make, or to decline to make, a costs order in exercise of the appeals commission’s powers under sections 205 and 206 of the Planning Act (Northern Ireland) 2011, and by further clarifying that Commission reports of examinations (in addition to Commission reports of inquiries and hearings), shall be made by a single commissioner or a panel of Commissioners appointed by the Chief Commissioner.
