Prescribe the procedure to be followed in connection with local inquiries relating to applications for planning permission or for the approval of a local planning authority required under a development order held by SoS in England, where he thinks that the development to which the application relates is of national or regional importance. The Rules applying only to England have been made in consequence of the enactment of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004, which inserted new ss76A and 76B into the Town and Country Planning Act 1990. They reproduce, with amendments, the Town and Country Planning (Major Infrastructure Projects Inquiries Procedure) (England) Rules 2002. The Rules enable inquiries to be held in concurrent sessions by a number of inspectors, where the lead inspector so recommends to SoS and provide for publicity for inspector's notes of pre-inquiry meetings and recommendations.
