Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

What decided it
The negligible 5cm shortfall in floor-to-ceiling height for four flats, combined with compliance with the Nationally Described Space Standards and the absence of unacceptable harm to neighbouring light, meant the proposal accorded with the development plan taken as a whole.
