Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the condition restricting operational hours is necessary having regard to the living conditions of neighbouring residents, with particular regard to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The inadequate noise impact assessment, combined with the likely significant harm to neighbouring residents' living conditions from 24-hour operations, outweighed the uncertain economic benefits of removing the operational hour restriction.
