| 1. | The removal of the condition limiting the occupancy of the annexe would result, in effect, in the formation of a new dwelling in the countryside outside any area where the Local Planning Authority would normally permit residential development and therefore has to be considered against saved Policy HOU10 of the Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan.
Policy HOU10 states that permission for new dwellings in the countryside will only be given if required in connection with agriculture, forestry, organised recreation, or the expansion of existing institutions. The proposal is contrary to this policy in that no need for the dwelling has been demonstrated to satisfy the criteria of the above policy and there is, therefore, insufficient justification to warrant a departure from national and local policies designed to protect the countryside.
