The sentiment of this policy is supported. However, we strongly promote the allocation of small and medium sites to meet employment need to avoid an over-reliance on a small number of sites to meet all of employment needs. The allocation of a greater variety of employment sites ensures that there is sufficient employment land to meet the different needs and importantly, help to support the rural economy. In light of the above, the RA&S Site is ideally suited for small scale employment and should be allocated for such.
In addition, given South Warwickshire rural and Green Belt context, as well as supporting large-scale growth, the contribution of small-medium scale businesses in local economies must be recognised and supported. The policy should be expanded to award weight to proposals that: 1) maintain employment opportunities within existing employment sites and the locality; 2) expand existing small-scale businesses; and 3) utilise existing strategic transport networks. Additional allowance and reference should made to Green Belt sites in delivering employment growth.
