extension of duration for PL19/96 for the erection of a shed part for the housing of sheep and part for the storage of machinery and permission for the erection of a lean-to shed to the gable end of existing shed for the storage of fuel and permission for the erection of an open lean-to shed for the parking of trailer and farm machinery and all associated site
Refused
Core Refusal Reason
The application for an extension of duration was refused because substantial works had not been carried out on the site prior to the expiration of the original planning permission, as required by Section 42 of the Planning and Development Act 2000 (as amended).

- The Planning Authority determined that these limited works do not constitute 'substantial works' as defined under Section 42(1)(a)(i)(III) of the Planning and Development Act 2000 (as amended).
- As the statutory requirements for an extension of duration were not met before the expiration of the appropriate period, the application must be refused.
