Barnett v Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government and another; [2009] WLR(D) 107

The general rule in construing planning permission which was clear and unambiguous, to have regard only to the permission unless the planning application had been expressly incorporated, applied to outline planning permission. Where full planning permission was granted for the construction of buildings, the grant approved the application plans and drawings unless the grant expressly stated otherwise.”

Canterbury City Council v Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government; Green v Same [2009] WLR (D) 103

When planning permission was granted for a change of use, a condition could be imposed which would have the effect of regulating the permission in order to control any future expansion of the use by way of intensification, and only if such a condition allowed intensification to the extent of there being a material change of use would it be unlawful; nor did the use of the term ‘static’ caravan render a condition void for uncertainty or contrary to the Secretary of State’s policy.
