I partially agree with Draft Policy Direction 3 but have concerns about Green Belt protections and infrastructure. Limited infilling in the Green Belt must not lead to incremental loss, and stronger safeguards are needed to prevent future expansion. The policy should prioritise brownfield and urban sites first. Additionally, small-scale development should only proceed where infrastructure—schools, healthcare, and transport—is in place to support it. Without clear guarantees on service expansion before growth, this policy risks overburdening local amenities. Stronger controls on Green Belt use and infrastructure-led development are essential to making this approach sustainable.
