Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the enforcement notice is a nullity due to fundamental defects in its drafting and clarity

What decided it

The enforcement notice is a nullity because it is fundamentally defective on its face, being hopelessly ambiguous and uncertain in identifying the land affected and the steps required to remedy the alleged breach.
