Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the period for compliance with the enforcement notice requirements is reasonable
What decided it
The compliance period of nine months, which would effectively extend to over 12 months from the appeal decision date, is reasonable and proportionate, and there is no good reason to extend it further despite the appellant's financial difficulties and desire to pursue a retrospective application.
