ABSTRACT
Glidewell LJ: This appeal relates to an activity which, in general terms, is subject to planning control under the Town and Country Planning Act and to control as a prescribed process under Part I of the Environmental Protection Act 1990. The main issue in the appeal is, what is the proper approach for the Secretary of State for the Environment to adopt where these two statutory regimes apply and, to an extent, overlap?
