Godwin Developments acknowledge the approach as set out in Draft Policy G regarding climate resilient design. It is important that new schemes are designed to minimise and prevent overheating and avoid the need for mechanical ventilation.

It is noted that all proposals for new development will be required to complete a climate change checklist to demonstrate how climate change risk has been addressed in their design. Instead of this being a separate document, would it not be more appropriate that these details are including in Design and Access Statements or Energy Statements which form part of the validation checklist? It is important that we seek to streamline the amount of information that is being presented in planning applications. This would be beneficial for both the planning officer and the general public who are reviewing these documents.
