Part III: Control over development

The Secretary of State may by development order make provision about the procedure for the preparation and making of a Mayoral development order.

A development order under subsection (1) may in particular make provision about—

notice, publicity and inspection by the public;
consultation with and consideration of views of such persons and for such purposes as are specified in the order;
the making and consideration of representations.

A Mayoral development order may be made only in response to an application to the Mayor of London by each relevant local planning authority.

A proposed Mayoral development order may be consulted on only with the consent of each relevant local planning authority.

A Mayoral development order may not be made unless the order has been approved, in the form in which it is made, by each relevant local planning authority.

If the Mayor of London makes a Mayoral development order, the Mayor must send a copy to the Secretary of State as soon as is reasonably practicable after the order is made.
