82B Urgent works relating to Crown land: application

(1) This section applies to any works proposed to be executed in connection with any building which is on Crown land if the appropriate authority certifies— (a) that the works are of national importance, and (b) that it is necessary that the works are carried out as a matter of urgency. (2) The appropriate authority may, instead of making an application for consent to the local planning authority in accordance with this Act, make an application for consent to the Secretary of State under this section. (3) If the appropriate authority proposes to make the application to the Secretary of State it must publish in one or more newspapers circulating in the locality of the building a notice— (a) describing the proposed works, and (b) stating that the authority proposes to make the application to the Secretary of State. (4) For the purposes of an application under this section the appropriate authority must provide to the Secretary of State a statement of the authority’s grounds for making the application. (5) If the appropriate authority makes an application under this section subsections (6) to (9) below apply. (6) The Secretary of State may require the authority to provide him with such further information as he thinks necessary to enable him to determine the application. (7) As soon as practicable after he is provided with any document or other matter in pursuance of subsection (4) or (6) the Secretary of State must make a copy of the document or other matter available for inspection by the public in the locality of the proposed development. (8) The Secretary of State must in accordance with such requirements as may be prescribed publish notice of the application and of the fact that such documents and other material are available for inspection. (9) The Secretary of State must consult— (a) the local planning authority for the area to which the proposed development relates, and (b) such other persons as may be prescribed, about the application. (10) Subsection (7) does not apply to the extent that the document or other matter is subject to a direction under paragraph 6(6) of Schedule 3 (matters related to national security). (11) Subsections (4) and (5) of section 12 apply to an application under this section as they apply to an application in respect of which a direction under section 12 has effect.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
