Preferred Options Core Strategy and Policies Development Plan Document (DPD) Review

DM23

Representation ID: 25670

Received: 08/03/2019

Respondent: NHS Property Services Ltd

Representation Summary:

DM23 - Protection and Provision of of Community Facilities restricts the loss or change of existing Community Facilities.

Policies which aim to prevent the loss of or change of use, where healthcare is included are considered overly onerous and inflexible. Other rigorous tests exist overseen by NHS commissioners. An alternative wording is offered that would allow NHS support for the policy.
