The Council has not provided any evidence specifying the local circumstances in Warwick to justify Draft Policies NZC1 – NZC2(A-D), which require standards above and ahead of 2025 implementation for Future Homes Standard. As set out in the 2021 NPPF, all policies should be underpinned by relevant and up to date evidence which should be adequate, proportionate and focus focussed tightly on supporting and justifying the policies concerned (para 31). It is the HBF’s opinion that the Council should comply with the Government’s intention of achieving net zero carbon development through the Building Regulations, the Council’s proposed policy approach is unnecessary because of the higher levels of energy efficiency standards for new homes proposed in the 2021 Part L uplift and the Future Homes Standard 2025.
