There is a risk that if the revocation is the basis of a valid objection then the matter
would have to be the basis of a Public Local Inquiry which would incur the Council in
additional cost and time. However the risk associated with this revocation is
considered to be low as it is the estate of the applicant that are seeking the
revocation.
