Wiltshire Council v Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government & Anor [2026] EWHC 463 (Admin) (03 March 2026)
Planning statutory review dismissed: a post-decision fire damaging Hangar 3 did not retrospectively vitiate the inspector’s lawful permission.
The High Court upheld revocation of a sponsor licence after finding multiple breaches of sponsor duties, each sufficient on its own to justify revocation.
Policy W3 is lawful as it does not unlawfully extend beyond the statutory definition of waste, is justified by evidence of environmental harm, and the requirements imposed are proportionate and within the LPA's powers. The failure to consult the NFU at Regulation 19 stage did not cause substantial prejudice as their arguments were before the Inspectors at other stages. The Inspectors' reasons were legally adequate.
