The Minister may give directions to the Planning Authority requiring that all or any applications under section 24 or any class of applications specified in the direction shall be referred to him for determination instead of the Planning Authority, and every such application shall then be so referred to the Minister.
The decision of the Minister on such an application shall be communicated to the Planning Authority, who shall grant or refuse written permission in accordance with the decision, and, if written permission is granted, impose such conditions as the Minister may direct and such other conditions as the Planning Authority thinks fit.
The Minister shall, in determining any such application, have all the functions of the Planning Authority under this Act, and references to the
Planning Authority shall accordingly be construed as references to the
Minister.
Any decision by the Minister under this section shall be final but any decision by the Planning Authority to impose conditions other than as directed by the Minister shall be subject to appeal under section 31 as if the conditions had been imposed by the Planning Authority under section 25(4).

The Minister may authorise, by notification published in the
Gazette, either generally or in relation to any specified area, any development of land or works within a conservation area subject to such conditions as may be specified in the notification.
