Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the steps required by the enforcement notice, or the activities required by the notice to cease, exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach of planning control under section 174(2)(f) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990

What decided it

The enforcement notice's requirements do no more and no less than seek to remedy the breach of planning control by discontinuing the unauthorised use and restoring the land to its condition before the breach, and therefore are not excessive under section 174(2)(f).
