These Regulations, which apply in England only, amend the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Regulations 1990. The changes are the introduction of a requirement for the local planning authority to provide a summary of the reasons for a grant of listed building consent or conservation area consent where no conditions are attached to such consent (regulation 2) and an amendment altering the time limit for appeals from six to three months (regulations 4 and 5). The Regulations make one other consequential change and include transitional provisions.
