Reason: In order to define the permitted occupancy having regard to the fact that the premises are unsuitable for permanent residential occupation.

Specifically the occupation of the premises as a dwelling shall require the benefit of a separate planning permission. The Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982 (Licensing of Short-term Lets) Order 2022 will require the host of any new short-term let to apply to the Council for a licence.
