Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order is concerned with the further implementation in Scotland of Council Directive 85/337/EEC (OJ No. L175, 5.7.85, p. 40). It provides that no simplified planning zone scheme has effect to grant planning permission for development which requires environmental assessment.
