5.6 1, 2 & 3 Again we are seeing the use of the word "considering" rather than obliging developers to comply with tthe regulations that are being set in order to get to net zero.
What consultation has been done with environmentally sustainable concious bodies to advise practical measures to inform council staff and developers? Other carbon issues to consider in developments are vegetation destruction, particularly mature trees which absorb carbon, biodiversity loss (often avoidably), cycle routes should be completed before the houses are constructed.

What consultation has been done with environmentally sustainable concious bodies to advise practical measures to inform council staff and developers? There are other carbon issues to consider when developments are under way such as vegetation destruction, particularly mature trees which absorb carbon, the biodiversity loss (often avoidably), the cycle routes which should be completed before the houses are constructed rather than later, such as the situation with the estate on Europa Way where residents cannot even walk safely into town, but must drive.
