Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the enforcement notice specifies with sufficient clarity the land where the breach of planning control is alleged to have taken place

What decided it

The enforcement notice did not specify with sufficient clarity the precise boundaries of the land where the breach of planning control was alleged, and the defect could not be corrected without causing injustice.
