A policy on the natural environment is strongly supported, where it does not reiterate existing RSS and PPS9 policies and principles. It is strongly recommended that this policy area (potentially in combination with the Historic Environment, Open Space and Culture issues) provides contextual background that evidences the designation principles behind the allocation of the Areas of Restraint. It is suggested that these areas be justified through the production of a SPD relating to these assets. These assets should not just include the areas currently identified but those that are important to maintain, restore and enhance the natural/historic and cultural environment plus important assets that enable ecological networks and connectivity throughout the District and neighbouring authorities. This is supported through the Sustainability Appraisals and furthers the potential inclusions in the RSS Phase 3 review. It is suggested that this can be achieved in a relatively short period (for ecology and geology) as the data necessary for this modelling is already in existence.
