Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the enforcement notice specifies with sufficient clarity the alleged breach of planning control
  • Whether the enforcement notice can be corrected without causing injustice to the appellant

What decided it

The enforcement notice misdescribed the alleged breach of planning control and could not be corrected without injustice to the appellant, therefore it must be quashed as invalid.
