Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the Council's decision to refuse the LDC was well founded, turning on whether there is sufficient evidence to demonstrate that the dwelling was occupied as a C4 HMO for the relevant period

What decided it

The appellant's evidence does not meet the required standard of proof to establish a lawful C4 use, as it lacks sufficient precision and is ambiguous.
