The proposed policy should be deleted as it is tantamount to introducing green belt restrictions in areas without the need to justify same in planning terms. Either the land is worthy of green belt status or else it remains countryside; the policy should be deleted.

Health Impact Assessments should not be required as part of the planning application stage, adding to the already significant front-end loading (and costs) of information sought by local planning authorities. There should also be a clear definition as to what these will comprise. The requirement in point 2) of the proposed policy must be subject to the viability considerations of the proposed development.
