Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

There is no policy to reflect item 70 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and protect cultural, leisure and tourism facilities. The policies do not compliment the following aspirations in the text:
*para.3.112 states that as cultural assets such as theatres, cinemas, libraries etc enrich people's quality of life, it is appropriate to consider how planning can assist (presumably in their protection and enhancement).
*para.3.116 states that culture, leisure and tourism are important for centres to be vibrant and prosperous (i.e. 'valued facilities').
*para.3.128 says that 'meeting places, cultural facilities and public art are important features in sustainable communities (i.e. 'valued facilities').'
*para.3.129 says that 'new development will inevitably place demands on existing public meeting places such as community halls and public cultural facilities such as theatres, concert halls and libraries (i.e. 'valued facilities').'
*para.3.9 repeats para.3.112 regarding the importance of cultural assets with reference to policy PC0 which supports 'the important role of culture and leisure assets.
HS8 does protect community facilities but is inadequate in providing a comprehensive description for the term 'community facilities'. Paragraph 5.90 gives some D1 examples and says that other facilities (presumably cultural, leisure and tourism) may be protected, but only in exceptional circumstances. Theatres are sui generis, and all other entertainment facilities are D2 so are not included in this policy.
