This section applies to—

an appeal under section 100 (appeal against decision or failure to make decision on application for listed building consent or conservation area consent, for the variation or removal of conditions or for approval of details);

b

an appeal under section 127 (appeal against enforcement notice).

3

But this section does not apply to an appeal if—

a

it is an appeal of a description specified in regulations made by the Welsh Ministers, or

b

the Welsh Ministers direct that the appeal is to be determined by them instead of by an appointed person.

4

This section does not affect any provision of this Act or of regulations made under it that an appeal may be made to, or that a notice of appeal must be served on, the Welsh Ministers.

5

Where an appointed person determines an appeal, the appointed person’s decision is to be treated as the decision of the Welsh Ministers.
