The Commissioners' adopted wording ('from a farming activity') was inconsistent with the s 42A Reply Report reasoning and risked unintended double regulation; this amounted to an error of law, and the Court therefore substituted the Council's decision by amending Policies 14.4.28 and 14.4.41 to read 'occurring as part of a farming activity' so that only one control applies.
