The Welsh Ministers may by regulations make provision for and in connection with the provision of pre-application services by a local planning authority in Wales or the Welsh Ministers.
Regulations under this section may, in particular, make provision—
about circumstances in which pre-application services are required to be provided (including provision about the form and content of requests for pre-application services, and information that is to accompany a request);
about the nature of the services required to be provided, and when and how they are to be provided;
for information and documents relating to services provided under the regulations, or relating to requests for such services, to be published or otherwise made available to the public, or to persons specified in the regulations, by a local planning authority or the Welsh Ministers;
about other steps required to be taken by any person in connection with, or for the purposes of, the provision of services under the regulations.
References in this section and section 61Z2 to pre-application services are to services provided to a person, in respect of a qualifying application proposed to be made by the person in respect of the development of land in Wales, for the purpose of assisting the person in making the application.
A "qualifying application" is an application, under or by virtue of this Part, that is of a description specified in regulations made by the Welsh Ministers.
