Bellway supports the consideration of climate change and resilience in the design of new development. The design
of new development is supported by various national guidance documents and requirements, including:
• Part O of the Building Regulations7 which sets out requirements for the assessment of overheating risk in
new homes.
• Environmental Agency climate change allowances8
in respect of flood risk assessment and surface water
management.
• The England Biodiversity Strategy and Natural England Climate Change Adaptation Manual
The application of any specific targets which go beyond the requirements of the Building Regulations or national
guidance needs to be fully considered as part of the Plan evidence base and viability assessment.
