Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

What decided it
The rear outrigger qualifies as a 'rear or side extension' under the GPDO Technical Guidance, meaning the roof extension joining the original roof to the outrigger roof falls within the permitted exception and does not breach condition B.2(b)(ii).
