NEW GOVERNMENT LEGISLATION:

In light of the Governments recent change of legislation, from 1^st September 2020, those properties previously referred to as being (A1), (A2), (A3), (B1a) & (D2) Leisure uses are now within a newly created E Class (Commercial, Business & Services). As a result, any shop front premises can be used for any of the aforementioned use without the need for Planning Permission. In addition, a single property can be used for a mix of any the above. Any property in use within Class A1,A2, A3, B1(a) or indoor Sports/ recreation (d2) as of 1^st September will be treated as being used for a purpose within the new Class E.

(A4/A5) uses have now been moved to Sui Generis & require a change of use as was previously necessary. Learning & non-residential institutions previously referred to as (D1) are now in a new Class F1.   

Whilst the above is provided in good faith, parties are advised to take legal advice as, in certain cases, Local Authorities may adopt an Article 4 which might restrict some of the provisions.
