The Proposal seeks planning permission for EIA development (within the meaning of regulation 2) of the Town and Country Planning (Environmental Impact Assessment) Regulations 2017). These regulations prevent the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government from granting planning permission for development that requires an Environmental Impact Assessment unless such an assessment has been carried out of that development.  The document below details the approach that MHCLG intends to follow regarding publication, notification and consultation when considering a request for planning permission for an Entertainment Resort Complex and associated development, Bedford.
