These representations broadly support the vision. It reflects Paragraph 7 of the NPPF which states that the purpose of the planning system is to contribute to sustainable development. The overarching principles do not align with the vision. None of them refer to delivery of homes and jobs which are key to sustainable development. Reference must be made to this to then feed into the Strategic Objectives which do reference housing and employment. The selected spatial growth strategy, ‘Sustainable Travel and Economy’ should be referred to and woven into the other principles.

The vision and first principle strongly emphasizes the climate emergency. While generally supported this should not dominate the vision and strategic objectives to the detriment of delivery of development to meet identified needs. The second principle refers to a beautiful south Warwickshire. This is supported and Paragraph 131 of the NPPF makes reference to beauty but this needs to be defined and supported by guidance on what it means in practice.

The Strategic Objectives cover the social, economic and environmental dimensions of sustainable development as set out in Paragraph 8 of the NPPF and they are therefore considered consistent with national policy.
