According to section 46(3) of the Act (http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/201 ... 46/enacted), s15 came into force the day the Act was passed - which I presume from http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/201 ... on/enacted was 27 April 2017. Haven't read the Act in any more detail than that, though, so I also don't know the answer about Approved Neighbourhood Plans.

The Neighbourhood Planning Act 2017 appears to have received Royal Assent on 27 April 2017 http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/201 ... s/contents.
Section 15 of that Act commenced:
15 Permitted development rights relating to drinking establishments
(1)As soon as reasonably practicable after the coming into force of this section, the Secretary of State must make a development order under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 which ...
The Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) (Amendment) (No. 2) Order 2017 came into force on 23 May 2017 http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2017 ... 619_en.pdf
I think the impact of the Order may be to remove permitted development rights in many cases. The need to list Assets of Community Value is no longer paramount but may be of relevance should a planning application be made.
Further than that, I don't really know the implications.
Edit: This may explain it better than I can manage:
