Improving air quality should receive greater focus and new developments must demonstrate that they will not worsen air quality before gaining planning consent.

The Framework (paragraph 69) also recognises that the planning system can play an important role in facilitating social interaction and creating healthy, inclusive communities. The development of sustainable new communities through strategic allocations within a local plan (crossing local authority boundaries where necessary) provides the opportunity to embed the principles of garden settlements and in doing so integrate an approach that will ensure that an attractive environment is developed to support the formation of healthy and sociable communities.

Public health intersects with many areas of the planning system. The Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy for Suffolk (refreshed in 2016) identifies four strategic outcomes with four cross cutting themes (see full comments). The plan should: make provision for play space on allocated sites and safe walking and cycling routes; include additional standards for accessible homes; increase the number of accessible homes in Ipswich; include dementia-friendly design. IBC should consider whether Building for Life Guidelines are sufficient, or whether to produce more detailed local design guidance. Access to the natural environment improves mental and physical health and wellbeing, prevents disease and helps people recover from illness. Green space delivered through the Local Plans, can help to reduce health inequalities.
