EXPLANATORY NOTE

These Regulations amend the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Regulations 1990 (SI 1990/1519) as amended (‘the 1990 Regulations’).

Section 1 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 (‘the 1990 Act’) requires the Secretary of State to compile lists of buildings of special architectural or historic interest, or to approve such lists compiled by the Historic Buildings and Monuments Commission for England (English Heritage) or by any persons or bodies of persons.

The responsibility for compiling the lists under section 1 of the 1990 Act has transferred from the Secretary of State to English Heritage, with the Secretary of State being responsible for the approval of those lists.

Regulation 2 of these Regulations substitutes Schedule 4 to the 1990 Regulations to reflect the fact that the Secretary of State is now responsible for approving the lists of buildings of special architectural or historic interest under section 1 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990.
