Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the Council's refusal to grant a certificate of lawful use was well founded

What decided it

The appellant's evidence was insufficiently precise and contained significant ambiguities and gaps in the timeline to demonstrate on the balance of probability that the HMO use for 20 people commenced on or before 1 December 2013 and continued without interruption.
