Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the steps required by the enforcement notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach of planning control

What decided it

Requirement 5(iii) was excessive because it required installation of new windows rather than remedying the breach by restoring the building to its condition before the unauthorised development, and therefore exceeded what was necessary to remedy the breach of planning control.
