Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed variation of condition 2 falls within the scope of an application made under section 73 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990

What decided it

The proposed substitution of plans to include a third building does not change the description of development (still one dwelling) and falls within the scope of section 73 as there is no statutory limit on the degree of change permissible to conditions.
