The proposed provision of a reserved site for a health centre within the Northern Fringe District Centre to mitigate the healthcare impacts arising from the proposed development is not 'positively prepared', 'justified', 'effective' or 'consistent with national planning policy' and, therefore, cannot be considered to be 'sound'.
NHS Property Services Ltd, on behalf of NHS England, objects to the requirement for the Northern Fringe District Centre to provide "a reserved site for a health centre".
The submissions made by the NHS to the Ipswich Northern Fringe SPD consultation in July 2012, to the Ipswich Northern Fringe SPD Issues & Options Document consultation in February 2013 and to the current Garden Suburb SPD consultation, identify that, in order to mitigate the healthcare impacts arising directly from the proposed development, the land required for the phased construction and fitting out of the new health centre floorspace would need to be provided and fully funded by the developer and brought forward in accordance with a planning obligation and related phasing plan to be agreed with the NHS and the Borough Council.
The allocation of land for a health centre along with utility connections would not provide any new primary healthcare capacity to mitigate the impacts arising from the new community. It would therefore be inadequate mitigation and fail the tests in paragraph 204 of the NPPF and Sec 122 of the CIL Regulations.

Regarding Table 8B, the trigger point for any strategic improvements to the sewerage system should be the completion of a pre-application water quality assessment by Anglian Water for the proposed Ipswich Garden Suburb. We recommend that Table 8B is amended to include a requirement for a pre-application water quality asessment to be carried out. The findings of this assessment should then serve to act as a trigger point for any strategic improvements to the sewerage system and sewer network capacity.
