Regina (Wychavon District Council) v Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government and Others

Court of Appeal

“The loss of their home by a Gypsy family with nowhere else to live was capable in law of being regarded as a very special factor for the purposes of the national guidance issued to local planning authorities and was to be weighed in the balance as between the value society attached to the protection of Gypsy homes against the public value of protecting the Green Belt.”
