Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the appeal proposal can be considered under section 73 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990
  • whether the proposed changes ensure acceptable living conditions for occupiers of LG6 and LG7, with regard to the provision of internal space, outlook, natural light and private amenity space

What decided it

The proposed changes to LG6 and LG7 would effectively create self-contained units rather than HMO bedrooms, which would alter the operative part of the original permission and exceed the scope of section 73 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.

Judgments cited: John Leslie Finney v Welsh Ministers & Carmarthenshire County Council, Energiekontor (Uk) Limited [2019] EWCA Civ 1868
