Representation ID: 99276

Received: 14/12/2022

Respondent: Anglian Water

Representation Summary:

SUPPORTING TEXT MODIFICATION: We would welcome modifications to this paragraph of the supporting text as it implies that there have been recent changes to the General Permitted Development Order (2015) regarding the permitted development rights for water and sewerage in Schedule 2. It would be correct to state:
“W14.2 With increasing populations and water quality standards there is continuing investment
being made into wastewater treatment. [delete: Although changes to permitted development rights have sought to remove the need for planning applications for very small developments] [insert: 'Permitted development rights exist for certain types of water and sewerage development which are set out in the General Permitted Development Rights Order 2015 (as amended).] [Insert: 'However'], there are still applications that will need to be determined [insert: 'beyond the thresholds for permitted development'].
