Until recently (2012/13) little effort has been made to constructively engage with neighbouring authorities. There is no recent evidence of effective and deliverable policies on strategic cross-boundary matters. The Core Strategy should not be examined until such work is released. The effectiveness of the Core Strategy would be greatly improved through cross-boundary joint initiatives and the public should have the opportunity to comment on these. Any intentions for development of the former sugar beet site (in Babergh District and recently purchased by Ipswich Borough Council) should be examined as part of the Core Strategy Review.
