36: Rules relating to restricted discretionary activities

You could also call this:

"Rules for activities that need special permission"

Illustration for Planning Bill

If a national rule or a rule in a plan says an activity is a restricted discretionary activity, you need to know what that means. The rule must say what matters people in charge can make decisions about. The rule can also set conditions for the activity, but only if those conditions are related to things mentioned in section 151 or Part 1 of Schedule 7. This is part of a proposed new law, which may change how things are done now.
