Given the proposed insertion to paragraph 8.22, we would remind the Council, particularly on the provision of sewerage and sewer network capacity, that in relation to the delivery of infrastructure required to support new development, paragaph 162 of the NPPF advises that local planning authorities should work with other authorities/providers to assess the quality and capacity of waste water and its treatment. The Council should ensure that a proper assessment is carried out with Anglian Water of sewerage and sewer network capacity requirements for the proposed Ipswich Garden Suburb, before a planning application is submitted.
