Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether section 73 of the Act allows the development granted by the original permission without the disputed condition
- whether section 73 of the Act allows the development granted by the original permission with a variation to the disputed condition to remove the restriction on installing cooking facilities, and the effect of doing so on the living conditions of neighbours
What decided it
The variation to remove the cooking facilities restriction would not create a discrepancy with the original description of development as ancillary accommodation, and would not unacceptably harm the living conditions of neighbouring occupants.
