Section 22

Where an application for written permission under section 13 is —

Where the competent authority cancels a planning permission or conservation permission under section 15(9), any person aggrieved by that decision may appeal to the Minister against that decision.

An appeal must be made in the form and manner prescribed and within 60 days of the date of the notification of the decision.

An appeal does not affect the enforceability of any condition imposed or prevent the taking of any action in respect of any unauthorised development of any land or any unauthorised works within a conservation area unless otherwise directed by the Minister in any particular case.

Where an appeal is brought under this section against a decision of the competent authority, the Minister may dismiss or allow the appeal unconditionally or subject to such conditions as the Minister considers fit.

The decision of the Minister on an appeal must be communicated to the competent authority and the applicant.

Where the competent authority grants written permission in accordance with the decision of the Minister on appeal, the competent authority may, whether the Minister dismisses or allows the appeal unconditionally or subject to conditions, impose such additional conditions as the competent authority thinks fit which must not be inconsistent with the decision of the Minister on appeal.

Any decision by the competent authority to impose additional conditions under subsection (7) may be appealed against under subsection (1) as if the conditions were imposed under section 14(4).

The decision of the Minister is final and is not to be challenged or questioned in any court.
