Representation Summary:

As the purpose of "Sustainable Development" should be delivery of Public Health, Well Being and Environmental protection, the Climate Change agenda and Act should be fundamental considerations. Object to the removal of "Climate Change" and "a-j" from CS1 (viability considerations should not be the deciding factor). Modified supporting text weakens the plan. Deference to the NPPF is misplaced. Oppose the suggestion that the NPPF "guidance" amounts to a "balancing act" between Public Health, environmental protection and growth. Relegating assessment of impacts to DM policies may result in poor decision making. 8.20 Climate Change may not be adequately addressed through CS18.
