This consultation seeks views on the classification of casinos within the Town and Country Planning (Classes) Order 1987 and particularly on the government's preferred option of making casinos sui generis with permitted development rights to revert to D2 use. Casinos are currently classified as a D2 leisure use, which means that a D2 use could convert to casino use without the need for planning permission. Given the proposed changes to casino licensing and new casino types and sizes that will be allowed under the Gambling Act 2005, government is considering whether a classification such as above remains the most appropriate. Responses to the consultation should be submitted to arrive before 21 October 1995 and a summary of the responses will be published on the DCLG website by 21 January 2006.
