1.	This permission expires on 21st May 2013 and unless on or before this date application has been made for an extension to the period of permission and such application is approved by the Local Planning Authority, the mobile home shall be removed from the site. The reason for this condition is :- The mobile home is unsuitable for permanent retention by virtue of its character/impact upon the locality. In addition, the applicant has not proven to the satisfaction of the Local Planning Authority that accommodation is required on the site on a permanent basis or that the holding would be able to support an agricultural worker on a permanent basis.
2.	The mobile home hereby permitted shall not be stationed on the application site until two of the four pre-determined polytunnels referred to in the agent's report which accompanied the application have been erected on the holding. The reason for the condition is :- To ensure the stationing of the mobile home on the application site does not preceed the commencement of the proposed development of the horticultural business. continued on next page :-
3.

The reason for the condition is :- To ensure the permanent availability of the parking/manoeuvring area in the interests of highway safety.

6.	The applicant shall keep formal accounts for the horticultural business operated from Page's Farm, Scratby for a period of three years from the date of this permission. The accounts shall be independently audited and made available for the Local Planning Authority to consider if a subsequent application is made to renew the temporary consent for the mobile home, or, if an application is made for a permanent dwelling on the application site/holding. The reason for the condition is :- In order to enable the Local Planning Authority to be able to assess the financial viability of the business enterprise.

Precise details of the hedge, including species, sizes, spacing and siting shall be submitted to and agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority prior to the planting being undertaken. Any plants which die, are diseased, are removed or otherwise fail within the period of this permission following planting shall be replaced with the same species and size of plant unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Local Planning Authority. The reason for the condition is :- In the interests of the satisfactory appearance of the development. continued on next page :-
