Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the enforcement notice specifies with sufficient clarity the steps required for compliance

What decided it

The enforcement notice failed to specify with sufficient clarity all the steps required for compliance, as it did not address the parking and storage of lorries which appeared to be integral to the site's use, and correction would cause injustice to the appellants.
