Asiant : Turley
Richborough broadly support the approach laid out in Draft Policy Direction 38 in that it aligns with current national policy/legislation.
There is some concern regarding the reference to “or any higher percentage mandated through local or national policy/legislation” and it is considered that any proposal to increase the level of BNG beyond national policy should be tested as it may impact delivery and viability.

Do you agree with the approach laid out in Draft Policy Direction –39- Environmental Net Gain?

Richborough note that this is an emerging area of policy and highlight the justification text at page 158 of the Preferred Options Plan, which states: “Further evidence is required to demonstrate the need for Environmental Net Gain and to help formulate specific policies for the Local Plan”. Until this further information is available to demonstrate there is a need for Environmental Net Gain Strategy, stakeholders are unable to provide a robust response.

Do you agree with the approach laid out in Draft Policy Direction-40 Green and Blue Infrastructure?

Asiant : Turley
Richborough generally supports Draft Policy Direction 40 “Green and Blue Infrastructure” however the introduction of a “Greening Factor” for the area needs more clarification and justification. The policy needs to include further detail on how such an approach would work in practice before stakeholders can provide a robust response.

Do you agree with the approach laid out in Draft Policy Direction-41 - Carbon Sinks and Sequestration?

Richborough consider, that in the context of page 164 of the SWLP, a specific Carbon Sinks and Sequestration policy is not required. There are sufficient proposed policies within the SWLP to protect nature sites. There is legislation to require 10% BNG is provided. At present, it is difficult to see how such a policy would add anything further to the SWLP.
