Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the time given to comply with the enforcement notice is too short

What decided it

The enforcement notice was varied to extend the compliance period to 6 months to afford the appellants reasonable time to find alternative accommodation, balancing the public interest in enforcement against their Article 8 rights to respect for home and family life.
