Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the evidence is sufficient to demonstrate that the premises were lawfully used as two self-contained flats for the required continuous period
What decided it
The evidence provided, particularly the gap in documentation between October 2019 and July 2020 and the lack of corroborating evidence for occupation during this period, was insufficient to demonstrate on the balance of probability that the premises were lawfully used as two self-contained flats for the required continuous period.
