520 _aConsiders how much immunity a local authority has from liability for any damage caused by the planning decisions it takes. Confirms that a neighbour who is inconvenienced by a development with planning permission has no redress against a local authority. However, notes that in certain circumstances a planning authority may incur a private law liability for loss caused as a result of a planning decision. A planning authority may also, in some circumstances, place itself under a common law duty of care. Discusses "Kane v New Forest D C", which illustrates that a planning authority can be held liable in negligence in the exercise of its development control powers, if that action results in the creation of a source of danger.
