Belmont Riding Centre Ltd v Secretary of State for the Environment Transport and the Regions and Another: QBD 26 Oct 2000

The land owner applied for permission to upgrade an indoor riding centre. The Secretary of State upheld the inspector’s decision. The claimant’s appeal was dismissed. The inspector had become seriously ill during the inquiry, and had delayed its completion, but he had considered properly the change of emphasis between outdoor and indoor activity, the intensification of use, and the particular character of the claimant’s proposals. The Inspector’s failure to repeat every item of evidence did not suggest that he had forgotten any of it, and he had properly considered and rejected the applicant’s arguments.
