Representation Summary:

DM25 [and supporting text] potentially risks prejudicing the delivery of new retail and town centre floorspace in suitable locations. The Employment Areas defined on the policies maps/through DM25 appear to be based on an out of date evidence base (Suffolk Haven Gateway Employment Land Review, October 2009).
