Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the land constitutes statutory undertakers' operational land as defined by section 263 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990
What decided it
The use of the plots as statutory undertakers' operational land has been abandoned; the mere retention of rights and easements by the undertakers does not amount to an existing use of land for the purposes of section 191(1)(a).
