Planning and Infrastructure BillContribution
As set out in the delegated powers memorandum which accompanies the Bill, the intention of Clause 41 is that an order under the Transport and Works Act would become more of a one-stop shop, encompassing the majority of approvals required to deliver a project. This clause would enable those orders to disapply the need to obtain authorisations under the relevant heritage regimes, rather than asking an applicant to apply separately. As my noble friend Lord Lansley says, that is not necessarily the case at present.
