Lawson Builders Ltd and Others v Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government and Another: CA 25 Feb 2015

The appellants challenged the decision of a planning inspector, in which he dismissed the first appellant’s appeal from a decision of Wakefield Metropolitan District Council, the second respondent. Wakefield had granted the first appellant’s applications for certificates of lawful development in respect of properties in Pontefract, West Yorkshire, but only on the basis that the development was lawful in consequence of the grant of a planning permission.
