Abstract

This Order provides for measures of enforcement in respect of breach of the approval required under paragraph 7(1) of Schedule 3 to the Flood and Water Management Act 2010 in relation to drainage systems for construction work. It provides that an approving body may agree with the local planning authority that that authority may exercise enforcement functions under this Order on behalf of the approving body and confers power on an approving body to give a temporary stop notice to a developer, where the body has reason to believe that a developer has breached the requirement for approval or an enforcement notice or stop notice in case of breach. It also provides with respect to compensation in relation to loss incurred as a result of enforcement actions. A developer may appeal to the Welsh Ministers against an enforcement notice.
