Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the listed building enforcement notice is sufficiently clear and certain in its specification of the alleged contravention and the requirements to remedy it

What decided it

The listed building enforcement notice is so vague, imprecise and ambiguous in specifying both the alleged contravention and the requirements to remedy it that it is a nullity and incapable of being enforced.
