Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the use of Flats 1 and 2 as permanent residential properties and the siting and use of the mobile home as a permanent residential property are lawful, having regard to the expiry of enforcement action time limits

What decided it

The time for enforcement action had expired in respect of both the breach of the holiday letting condition on the flats and the unauthorised residential use of the mobile home, and the immunity obtained as a result had not been lost.
