Representation Summary:

The adopted CS allows for a phased approach to development of the NF. Its SA judged multiple starts as unsustainable. However, the revised CS now allows simultaneous multi-site development across the NF without locational restrictions. A detailed examination of the implications of this change must be included in the new SA and a full critique of the rationale. Multiple starts may pose the risk that if a developer/landowner hits financial problems, the added burden [of infrastructure provision] falls on remaining landowners/developers, making their operation unviable and halting delivery, resulting in blight. Grampian Conditions are not mentioned within the Scoping report.
