This is badly worded. It appears to contradict the purpose of BUABs as they currently operate within the Core Strategy. We were specifically asked by the LPA to include a Policy that defined a BUAB within our Neighbourhood Plan. This proved to be good advice as it served to discipline planning applications that sought to go beyond the BUAB. In this we were subsequently well-supported by the LPA, including a case that went to appeal.

Settlement Boundaries need to be set by the Neighbourhood Plan. Local knowledge and information is vital to their operational performance as an planning tool.
