Reasons
for Decision
a)
The proposed diversion meets the legal criteria set out in the Town
and Country Planning Act 1990.
b)
The inclusion of these provision in a public path order means that
there is no need for a separate legal event order to modify the definitive map
and statement as a result of the diversion.
c)
Accordingly, the absence of objections may be taken as acceptance that
the proposed new routes are expedient and therefore Dorset Council can itself
confirm the Order.
