Rejected petition Urgent review of the amended General Permitted Development Order 2015
Since the amended General Permitted Development Order came into force privite telecommunication company’s have been using the permitted development right to install infrastructure in built up urban areas removing any right of objection or consultation with local residents or the planning authority
More details
We want a urgent review of the amendment made to the General Permitted Development Order 2015. It is vital that Government understands that this amendment has removed the right of reply and objection to those most affected by the installation of telecommunications masts on the public highway. Added to this the new regulations also bypass both the local Highways authority and the local Planning Authority. Effectively leaving all local stakeholders with no voice or rights of any kind
