Representation Summary:

The Plan does not deliver on the purpose of Sustainable Development, as defined by the 1987 Bruntland Commission Report for the United Nations.

This iteration of the plan, in part due to the process the Council has followed, is open to legal challenge like the 2013 legal challenge.

The plan does not accommodate the necessary level of housing for the HS2 Site.

Contrary to para 10, land around the NEC is not well served by local connections/public transport.

Not all aspects of the Climate Change Declaration that can be addressed are being addressed.

No adaptation to the consultation period has been made to account for COVID-19 jeopardising the successful adoption of the plan.

In relation to para 15- more people are working from home and homes are becoming commercial locations which the plan does not account for.
