Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would fall within the provisions of permitted development under Schedule 2, Part 3, Class MA of the GPDO
  • if so, whether the prior approval details relating to transport and highway impacts, contamination risks, flood risks, noise impacts, adequate natural light, and fire safety impacts would be acceptable

What decided it

The unit was lawfully in Use Class F.1 (Learning and Non-Residential Institutions) following implementation of a 2019 permission, not Use Class E (Commercial, Business and Service), and therefore did not qualify for the permitted development right under Class MA of the GPDO.
