Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the enforcement notice specifies with sufficient clarity the alleged breach of planning control
What decided it
The enforcement notice does not specify with sufficient clarity the alleged breach of planning control, and the defect is too fundamental to be corrected without causing injustice to the appellants.
