Regina v Greenwich London Borough Council, Ex Parte Glen International Ltd and Another: CA 29 Mar 2000

The council had issued notices requiring renovation works. The property owner applied for grants to cover such works, but the application was refused on the basis that no estimate accompanied the application. It was held that the grants were intended to be mandatory. The council had discretion to accept applications without this information, and in this case could not refuse the grant.
