Section 42 of the Planning and Development Act 2000, as amended, relating to the extension of the duration of a planning permission, does not provide for the making of any substantive change to a permission, other than the period during which the permission has effect. Apart from conditions relating to the giving of adequate security for the satisfactory completion of the development concerned, there is no provision in that enactment for attaching conditions to a decision to extend the duration of a permission or for consultation with third parties in the matter.
