Why is this section not incorporated into Section 7.4?

The Cooling Hierarchy in Draft Policy G is in conflict with Section 7.4 and Policy Direction 22. When you have True Zero and an airtightness less than 3 you need MVHR. How will Green roofs work in terms of the need for PV. Consider Brise Soleil and shutters on the outside of windows - learn from mainland Europe.

When you refer to changes to Building Regulations, do you mean Future Homes Standard?

The reductions mentioned will not deliver net zero. See my comments on DPD 22. Not all non-domestic buildings have the same reduction.

Agree with the statement that sustainable design and construction standards for new developments will help lower emissions but when are they going to be introduced? Surely this is part of Section 7.4. You mention overheating but what about the impacts of increased flooding?
