Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the matters alleged in the enforcement notice constitute a breach of planning control
  • Whether the time period stipulated to comply with the enforcement notice's requirements is unreasonably short

What decided it

The development was proceeding in accordance with the approved planning permissions and the apparent breach was attributable to temporary pandemic-related delays in implementation rather than a material contravention of planning control.
