Scheduled monument consent may be granted subject to conditions.

A condition may, for example—

impose requirements with respect to the way in which or the persons by whom the works or any of the works are to be carried out;
b
require that a person authorised by the Welsh Ministers be given an opportunity, before any works start, to examine the monument and its site and to carry out such excavations as the Welsh Ministers consider to be desirable for the purpose of archaeological investigation.
I219Condition about period within which works must start
1
Scheduled monument consent must be granted subject to the condition that the works to which it relates must start before the end of a period which is specified in the condition and begins with the day the consent is granted.

This section does not apply to—
a
scheduled monument consent which provides that it ceases to have effect at the end of a period specified in the consent (irrespective of whether any works have started),

consent granted under section 13(2) (consent for works already carried out), or
c
consent granted by a scheduled monument partnership agreement or a management agreement (see sections 25 and 51).
