Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the building is lawful
  • whether the proposed development would fall within the definition of development permitted by Schedule 2, Part 3, Class Q of the GPDO with specific regard to the extent of the proposed building operations
  • whether the location of the building is impractical or undesirable for the proposed conversion

What decided it

The building is lawful as a matter of law because the time for enforcement action had expired, and the proposed building operations fall within the scope of Class Q as reasonably necessary for conversion to residential use.
