The appellant challenged the decision of a planning inspector considering an enforcement notice with regard to the siting of a residential caravan on land that other suitable accommodation was not available in the area. The only evidence was a site visit. That visit could not support such a finding. A second decision to vary an enforcement notice went beyond the inspectors powers which were limited to considering whether the steps required by the notice were necessary to alleviate the planning breach. He could not consider injury to amenity.
