(a)that, in respect of any breach of planning control which may be constituted by the matters stated in the notice, planning permission ought to be granted or, as the case may be, the condition or limitation concerned ought to be discharged;
(b)that those matters have not occurred;
(c)that those matters (if they occurred) do not constitute a breach of planning control;

(e)that copies of the enforcement notice were not served as required by section 127;
(f)that the steps required by the notice to be taken, or the activities required by the notice to cease, exceed what is necessary to remedy any breach of planning control which may be constituted by those matters or, as the case may be, to remedy any injury to amenity which has been caused by any such breach;
(g)that any period specified in the notice in accordance with section 128(9) falls short of what should reasonably be allowed.
(2)An appeal under this section shall be made either—
(a)by giving written notice of the appeal to the Secretary of State before the date specified in the enforcement notice as the date on which it is to take effect, or
(b)by sending such notice to him in a properly addressed and prepaid letter posted to him at such time that, in the ordinary course of post, it would be delivered to him before that date.
