Town and Country Planning Act, 1947.—In exercise of
powers under Section 15 of this Act and para. 3 of article 9 of the
Town and Country Planning General Development Order, 1950, the
Minister of Housing and Local Government has issued the Town and
Country Planning (Housing Accommodation) Direction, 1952.
Consequent upon the issue of this Direction, the Borough
Council is consulted by the London County Council (the Planning
Authority) before any application for planning permission involving
change of use of premises from use as a dwelling, is determined.
Such consultations are designed to prevent any unnecessary aggravation
of the housing situation by the encroachment of business
premises into residential property.
