OBJECTIVE 3
Whilst the overall aim of the policy is supported, Target E goes beyond both the Local Plan and NPPF in proposing a blanket opposition to development in the Green Belt. Warwick Local Plan strategic policy DS18 simply references that applications within Green Belt will be determined in accordance with national planning policy. Such an approach is commended to this NDP as well.
NPPF policy sets out the nuances of appropriate and inappropriate development in the Green Belt, and also establishes a context whereby development may be permitted at application through the demonstration of exceptional circumstances. None of this is captured by Target E, which is framed in terms of a blanket opposition to all Green Belt development. The policy is therefore not in general conformity with the Local Plan nor does it flow from national policy, and hence fails basic tests a) and e).
