Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appellants have good reason to extend the compliance period of the enforcement notice beyond that specified, having regard to their health issues

What decided it

The Inspector has no authority to extend the compliance period to 3 years as this would constitute granting temporary planning permission, which is beyond the scope of a ground (g) appeal, and the compliance periods available are already reasonable and proportionate.
