In the case of development consisting of the provision of parking at Birmingham Interchange (""relevant development""), section 20(1) only applies to development which, when taken together with any other relevant development which has deemed planning permission under section 20(1), does not involve—

The deemed planning permission under section 20(1) for relevant development is to be treated for the purposes of the Development Management Procedure Order (and for no other purpose) as an outline planning permission in respect of which access, appearance, landscaping and layout (in each case as defined by that Order) are specified as reserved matters for the subsequent approval of the local planning authority.

In this section—

""Birmingham Interchange"" means so much of the land within the Act limits as falls within the area bounded by—
the A452 Chester Road to the east,
the M42 to the west, and
the A45 Coventry Road to the south;
""the Development Management Procedure Order"" means the Town and Country Planning (Development Management Procedure) (England) Order 2015 (S.I. 2015/595) (or any order replacing it);
the reference to development consisting of the provision of parking does not include development consisting of—
the provision of short-term parking for cars, taxis and coaches, or
the provision of parking on working sites.
