It shall be the duty of the Authority to institute a survey in Montserrat on matters that are to be expected to effect the development or the planning of the development. The Authority shall be responsible for the preparation of Preliminary Territorial Plan and a report on the survey. No person shall develop any land except under and in accordance with a planning permission. An application may be made for approval in principle. The Authority may serve enforcement notices on persons who have carried out development without a permission.

The Authority may issue also tree preservation orders for the purpose of preventing the damage to trees or woodlands or to order reforestation. (12 sections) Texte intégral Anglais
