Policy CC3 Building Standards Requirements - Residential Buildings requires all new dwellings to achieve Code for Sustainable Homes Level 4 from the date of adoption of the Local Plan and Level 5 from 2016 (or any future national equivalent) unless it can be demonstrated that it is financially unviable. This policy should be reviewed by the Council in response to the Governments recent consultation on the Housing Standards Review and the announcements on planning made in the recent Queen's Speech.
