Abstract
These Regulations amend, in relation to Wales, the Town and Country Planning (Environmental Impact Assessment) (England and Wales) Regulations 1999 so as to implement Article 3 of Directive 2003/35/EC insofar as it effects public participation in the decision-making process for applications and appeals relating to development for which environmental impact assessment is required.
The amendments concern, among other things, the existing definitions of "consultation bodies", "environmental information" and "exempt development", the publicity requirements relating to the National Assembly for Wales' power under regulation 4(4) of the 1999 Regulations to direct that an "exceptional case" is not to be subject to environmental assessment, notification to persons and environmental organisations who are likely to be affected by, or have an interest in, an application, the requirements in relation to further information provided by the applicant relating to the environmental statement and projects likely to have transboundary effects.
A minor consequential amendment to the Town and Country Planning (General Development Procedure) Order 1995 by updating an environmental impact assessment-related definition contained in article 1 of that Order.
