Cala supports the overall direction of this draft policy direction and commits to providing high quality, sustainable and energy-efficient developments. However, there may be some sites where meeting zero-carbon will be unviable. It is unclear whether the last sentence of this draft policy direction relates to Part A (residential buildings) and Part B (non-residential buildings) or just to Part B. This needs to be clarified. NPPF Paragraph 72 states that policies should have regard to economic viability and Paragraph 35 states that contributions should not undermine deliverability of the Local Plan. The impact of Net Zero Carbon requirements on deliverability should therefore be tested as part of viability assessments of the SWLP.
