Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the alleged breach of planning control (material change of use to HMO) had in fact occurred at the date of the enforcement notice

What decided it

The enforcement notice was issued in relation to a prospective breach of planning control (intended future use as an HMO) rather than an actual breach that had occurred, making it a nullity under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.
