Respondent: Sworders

Representation Summary:

We support this policy as it is entirely in accordance with national policy and consequently sound. Our support is, however, on the basis that the Green Belt boundary as per the policies map includes the Green belt releases necessary to deliver the District's housing needs. Without the Green Belt Review the Green belt boundary would not endure beyond the plan period and consequently fall foul of paragraph 83 of the NPPF and be unsound.

Whilst we are not seeking a modification, we would welcome the opportunity to participate in the oral examination in order to be able to fully represent the benefits of the site which cannot be dealt with satisfactorily through written representations alone.
