Any person with sufficient interest in the decision to adopt the Rushcliffe Design Code SPD may apply to the High Court for permission to apply for judicial review of the decision to adopt the SPD. Any such application must be made promptly and in any event not later than three months after the date on which the SPD was adopted.
