Correction to General Permitted Development Order 2026

Published: Thu 28th May 26

This correction notice amends a textual error in Article 6 of The Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development etc.) (England) (Amendment) Order 2026 by replacing 'the Schedule' with 'Schedule 1'.


This document is a formal correction notice for The Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development etc.) (England) (Amendment) Order 2026, specifically rectifying a cross-reference error found on page 2 within the newly inserted paragraph CA.1.(d), where the term 'the Schedule' must be amended to read 'Schedule 1'.

Arguments For

  • Ensures legal accuracy by correcting a typographical/cross-referencing error within the planning legislation.

  • Maintains the clarity and intended effect of the recently amended General Permitted Development Order regarding the specific planning permission conditions mentioned in paragraph CA.1.(d).

Arguments Against

  • Highlights potential for administrative errors in the drafting or publication of statutory instruments, which requires subsequent corrective action.

  • While minor, any error in legislation necessitates formal publication and tracking, adding minor overhead to the regulatory process.
