History of The GPDO 1995
The GPDO 1995 came into force on 3 June 1995, and was introduced by Statutory Instrument 1995 No. 418. The GPDO 1995 revoked The Town and Country Planning General Development Order 1988, which was a previous version of the legislation.
Since it came into force, the GPDO 1995 has been amended by a number of subsequent Statutory Instruments. In 1999, the functions of the Secretary of State under various sections of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (including sections 59, 60, and 333), so far as exercisable in relation to Wales, were transferred to the National Assembly for Wales. This means that, since 1999, the GPDO 1995 has been amended by some Statutory Instruments that apply in relation to England only and some that apply in relation to Wales only, resulting in different versions of the GPDO 1995.
With respect to England, the government Planning Portal website provides a list of 19 amendment Statutory Instruments, but states that this list may not be complete. The Planning Jungle website instead refers to 29 amendment Statutory Instruments.
The website www.legislation.gov.uk, which is delivered by the National Archives, provides the original ("as made") version of the GPDO 1995, but states that UK Statutory Instruments are not carried in their "revised" form on the website.

“The second day of July 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more”
—John Adams (1735–1826)
