Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether condition 9 meets the tests of reasonableness and necessity, and the effects of its variation or removal on public safety

What decided it

The absence of firm evidence that the advertisement would be likely to cause harm to public safety at the end of the 5-year period, combined with the lack of specific and relevant planning reasons to support the removal requirement beyond the automatic regulatory expiry.
