You can't just alter the plans without intervention from the local planning authority, surely?

You really think the same rules apply to people building million pound skyscrapers?

The LPA may have mandated it.

My parents had a stairway approved in their new house, built it then the LPA made them do it again slightly differently after being approved for the planning already.

If they change the decision after the building work has been done that they approved then they should pay for the changes. Unlikely but might make changes rarer than rocking horse poo.

I wouldn't have a clue, but as I said in my first post we need to know who authorized the cuts.

Sadly the same rules don't seem to apply to anyone in the multi-million category.
