Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be permitted development under Schedule 2, Part 20, Class A of the GPDO
- Whether the proposal would be granted planning permission by the GPDO with particular regard to the requirements of paragraph A.2(1)(f) the provision of adequate natural light in all habitable rooms of the new dwellinghouses
What decided it
The new windows would only relate to the additional storey permitted under Part 20, Class A and would not be installed in the external walls of the previously approved development, meaning Condition 9 would not restrict the proposal, and the habitable rooms would receive adequate natural light exceeding BRE guidelines.
