Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the time specified for complying with the enforcement notice requirements falls short of what should reasonably be allowed
What decided it
The compliance period should be extended to six months to allow sufficient time for preparation and completion of remedial works with provision for unforeseen delays, but no longer extension should be granted as it would perpetuate the breach and planning harm.
