FormatCRUX Case Note
The Crux
Unauthorised construction cannot be normalised through administrative inaction; planning authorities have continuing obligations to enforce sanctioned development.
What the Court held
The Supreme Court issued significant directions concerning sanctioned plans, inspections, completion and occupation certificates and the treatment of unauthorised construction.
Why it matters
The judgment is highly relevant to municipal enforcement, building permissions, redevelopment and litigation involving deviations from approved plans.
CRUX practice note
This note isolates the proposition most likely to matter in practice. The precise ratio, factual limits and subsequent treatment of the authority should always be checked against the judgment itself before professional reliance.
