Dear Mr England

Re - Application for a Lawful Development Certificate for a Proposed use or development by Westward Airways for runway lighting.

The CAA has confirmed our legal advice, that Land's End Aerodrome is not a relevant airport under the Airport's Act 1986. If our understanding is correct, this means that the airport does not benefit from general permitted development rights.

Westward Airways state in their application that they wish to proceed with their installation under General Permitted Development Order 1995-part 18, class B. In the light of the information above, please advise us whether Penwith District Council intend to grant this application?

We appreciate your help.

Yours sincerely

Caroline Passingham, Liaison Officer
