Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

What decided it

What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy SP6 of the Carlisle District Local Plan 2015-2030
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 136
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
