Planning analysis: In Fiske v Test Valley BC, the court considered whether a local planning authority (LPA) was compelled to treat a scheme’s incompatibility with an earlier permission as a material consideration in the determination of the planning application.

The LPA’s duty was to consider the planning merits of the proposal and any incompatibility was not obviously material to that determination.
