The draft policy recognises the need for cross-boundary working to address potential effects on protected habitats and species. We fully support such an approach but advocate that this be accompanied by a holistic approach to mitigation which recognises that RAMS should provide a suite of mitigation measures including the Ipswich Garden Suburb ('IGS') Country Park which allows for a responsive approach to development proposals. The separation of the IGS Country Park from RAMS risks a piecemeal approach to mitigation and an adverse impact on delivery of sites.
