That would cost those who wish to break the rules money and stop them doing it. Retrospective permission should be very rare.
Any work carried out by professional builders without permission should lead to a big fine for the builder. They know the rules so should not build without permission.
Why can our Councils/Government not see things so simply?

How true, I agree with every word, the planning enforcement system needs to be toughened up, with heavy fines for those that try to "get away with it"
