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 (ground (f))
  • Whether the period specified in the notice for compliance is reasonable (ground (g))

What decided it

The statutory bar in section 174(2A) prevented consideration of the planning merits, and the enforcement notice's requirements and compliance period were proportionate to remedying the breach of planning control.
