Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed building operations would exceed that which is reasonably necessary for the building to function as a dwellinghouse under Schedule 2, Part 3, Class Q.1.(i) of the GPDO
What decided it
The extent of proposed works, assessed as a matter of fact and degree, would constitute conversion rather than rebuilding and therefore comply with the limitation in paragraph Q.1.(i) of the GPDO that building operations must be reasonably necessary for the building to function as a dwellinghouse.
