Extant Status of Mineral Permissions at Zitherixon

I am writing to request environmental information under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 in relation to mineral permissions affecting land at Zitherixon, Kingsteignton. For the avoidance of doubt, this request relates to the land outlined in orange and labelled ‘Zitherixon’ on the plan associated with 99/2080/01/9DCC (Bovey Basin ROMP).

Please provide:

1. Confirmation of which specific mineral planning permission Devon County Council currently considers to be extant and operative in respect of the land outlined in orange and labelled ‘Zitherixon’ on the 1999 ROMP plan.

Devon County Council does not hold this information.

2. Any records held by the Council evidencing lawful commencement of permission 5/7/2923/23/4, including evidence of compliance with any condition precedent attached to that permission.

Please see this Devon County Council document from 1996 and page four of this Scoping Report from the relevant entry in the planning website.

Please note that some information has been redacted. This is because this information is exempt from disclosure under Regulation 13(1) of the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 (Personal Data). 

Devon County Council can confirm the requested information is held; however, the Council cannot disclose personal information, if releasing it would contravene any of the provisions in the UK General Data Protection Regulation. In this instance release of this information would contravene the first data protection principle and therefore the information is withheld

3. Confirmation as to whether permission 5/7/2923/23/4 is currently considered by the Council to have lapsed, and if so, the date and basis of that conclusion.

Devon County Council does not hold this information.

4. Confirmation whether Application 99/2080/01/9DCC superseded, replaced, or merely imposed updated conditions upon earlier mineral permissions affecting the land outlined in orange and labelled ‘Zitherixon’.

Devon County Council does not hold this information.

5. Confirmation whether, in the absence of any approved Scheme of Working for Zitherixon under 99/2080/01/9DCC, the Council considers any mineral working to be lawfully capable of taking place within the orange-outlined land.

Devon County Council does not hold this information.
