Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether condition 11 meets the tests set out in the National Planning Policy Framework and Planning Practice Guidance, specifically whether it meets the tests of being necessary, relevant to planning, relevant to the development to be permitted, enforceable, precise and reasonable in all other respects

What decided it

The fallback position of the Class Q conversion was the legitimate basis for granting permission for the dwelling in the Green Belt, making it necessary to restrict only Classes A and E permitted development rights to preserve openness, while allowing minor alterations that would have negligible impact.
