Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the steps required by the enforcement notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach of planning control
  • Whether the period allowed for compliance with the notice is reasonable

What decided it

The extension was constructed unlawfully, so the General Permitted Development Order does not permit its retention even in reduced form, and no alternative lesser steps were identified to remedy the breach.
