I beg to move, in page 66, line 15, to leave out from "where," to the end of line 23, and to insert: planning permission is granted under Part II of this Act for the carrying out of operations of any class specified in the Third Schedule to this Act, or for the institution of any use so specified, then if—

  1. (a) compensation has been paid under section eighteen of this Act in consequence of a previous refusal of permission fix those operations or that use or of the grant of such permission subject to conditions, or in consequence of the revocation or modification of permission so granted; or
  2. (b) compensation has been paid under section twenty-four of this Act in consequence of am order requiring the removal of any building or the discontinuance of any use of land, and the planning permission authorises the rebuilding of that building or the resumption of that use."
The purpose of this Amendment is that when compensation has been paid by the local authority in respect of a refusal to permit development, and subsequently that development is permitted, the person carrying out the development shall become liable to pay development charge.
