If individuals may rely on

This decision provides important insight into your family and property rights. Here is what it changes for you.

The situation

If private individuals may rely on breaches of administrative regulations imposing planning obligations or easements in the public interest, it is only on condition that they prove the existence of personal loss in a direct causal relationship, not merely with the presence of surrounding buildings that fail to comply with those regulations, but with the specific breaches identified.

What the law says

This decision confirms the fundamental principles of property law.

Key points to remember

• Strictly observe the statutory time limits for bringing a legal challenge
• Keep all your supporting documents (title deeds, legal instruments, correspondence)
• Plan ahead: preventive legal advice is always cheaper than litigation
