Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the period specified for compliance with the enforcement notice falls short of what should reasonably be allowed under section 174(2)(g) of the 1990 Act

What decided it

The appellant failed to demonstrate that the three-month compliance period falls short of what is reasonable, as there was insufficient evidence of hardship or disruption that would be avoided by extending to six months, and the compliance works were assessed as straightforward.
