Planning gain - 1990 - EGCS 1990 74 .

In Safeway properties Ltd v SoS for the Environment and another, QBD 22 May 1990, the application was dismissed on the grounds that the reasoning and application of the advice on DOE Circular 22/83 to the circumstances of the instant case could not be faulted. The inspector considered each of the tests for reasonableness and on the information before him he found against the applicants on all five tests in the circular. He was entitled to do so and to find that the need for the proposed traffic management measures did not arise wholly or substantially from the new development.
