- Whether the notice requirements are excessive (ground f)
- Whether the time for complying with the notice requirements is unreasonably short (ground g)
What decided it
The building provides all facilities for independent day-to-day living (kitchen, bedrooms, bathroom) and therefore constitutes self-contained residential accommodation which falls outside permitted development rights and requires planning permission.
