EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Rules) These Rules regulate the procedures to be followed in England and Wales in respect of public local inquiries which are held in connection with compulsory purchase orders which have been published in draft by Ministers under section 2(3) of and Schedule 1 to the Acquisition of Land Act 1981.
    They replace the Compulsory Purchase by Ministers (Inquiries Procedure) Rules 1967 (S. I.1967/720), which are revoked (subject to the transitional provisions contained in rule 21(2)) and generally contain similar procedures to those laid down in the Highways (Inquiries Procedure) Rules 1994 (S. I.1994/3263).
    These Rules establish a detailed timetable for each procedural step, and provide for the admission of proofs of evidence in advance of the inquiry in addition to the regulation of matters relating to the conduct of the inquiry itself and to the notification of the Minister's decision.
