(b)discharge any condition or limitation subject to which planning permission was granted.
(2) In considering whether to grant planning permission under paragraph (1), the planning appeals commission shall have regard to the development plan, so far as material to the subject matter of the enforcement notice, and to any other material considerations; and any planning permission granted under paragraph (1) may—
(a)include permission to retain or complete any buildings or works on the land, or to do so without complying with some condition attached to a previous planning permission;

(a)any planning permission granted under that paragraph shall be treated as granted on that application;
(b)in relation to a grant of planning permission or a determination under that paragraph, the decision of the planning appeals commission shall be final; and
(c)subject to sub-paragraph (b), any planning permission granted under that paragraph shall have the like effect as a permission granted under Part IV.
