It also contains a discussion of the power to seek an interim injunction and sets out invaluable guidance on the procedure to be followed where a LPA faces an urgent or imminent breach of planning control. The book also considers the law on Persons Unknown following the seminal Supreme Court decision in Wolverhampton City Council v London Gypsies and Travellers [2023] UKSC 47.

This book also considers how those who find themselves defending an application might resist the imposition of an injunction. The book, which considers the caselaw in detail as well as the relevant legislation and Civil Procedure Rules, brings together, comprehensively and for the first time, the law on section 187B. It will, therefore, be invaluable to not only LPAs but also to developers, It is essential reading for all those, including those in private practice, involved in the planning and development world who may find themselves seeking a planning injunction from the Court or resisting an application.
