A section 52 (s52) authorisation request (s52 of the PA2008) and any subsequent notice served under s52 relate to information about interests in land.

A number of authorisation requests received by the Planning Inspectorate to date have been submitted with insufficient information, resulting in delays in determination. Applicants should ensure they provide all of the information detailed in this advice note to prevent such delays.
