St Philips support the SWA's goal of delivering high-quality, sustainable developments but believe policies need to be flexible and well-evidenced as per the NPPF. St Philips acknowledge the necessity to reduce embodied carbon; however, UK regulations primarily focus on operational energy use, lacking a national standard for embodied carbon assessments. St Philips am concerned that the SWAs are proposing policies that deviate from national requirements without adequate justification. Past proposals have been rejected for being inconsistent with national policy, highlighting the need for a robust evidence base to support any higher requirements.
