520			_aAnalyses the implications of "R v First SoS and others" ([2004] EWHC 2953), the first court decision to deal explicitly with the relationship between Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and the Pollution Prevention and Control (PPC) regime introduced in 2000, which focuses on the issue as to the level of detail that can be safely left for decision by specialised pollution control authorities. The court held that there could be some overlap between the EIA and PPC regimes but that they remain separate regimes with separate functions. The European Commission has launched infringement proceedings against the UK arguing that developments, which do not need planning permission but do need a new PPC permit, are still subject to EIA requirements. If this case reaches the European Court of Justice, the Court's approach will be watched with great interest .
