A planning permission was given, with several references to it being temporary. Nevertheless no reference was made to the extent in time of the permission. Despite this, an application to remove the references to temporary status and to upgrade it to permanent was refused. There appears to be no power in equity to rectify a unilateral transaction consisting of a notification of a planning consent, even if it might be available for other unilateral acts. The notice was clearly intended to be temporary.
