It certifies that the operations specified in the First Schedule taking place on the land described in the Second Schedule would be lawful, on the specified date and, thus, would not have been liable to enforcement action under Part 7 of the 1990 Act on that date. 3.

Any operations which are materially different from those described or which relate to other land may render the owner or occupier liable to enforcement action. 4. The effect of the certificate is also qualified by the proviso in section 192(4) of the 1990 Act, as amended, which states that the lawfulness of a described use or operation is only conclusively presumed where there has been no material change, before the use is instituted or the operations begun, in any of the matters relevant to determining such lawfulness.
