Representation Summary:
Cloud Wing is supportive of the principle of Policy DM7. However, it has concerns that the wording of part iii) is inconsistent with national policy and requirements of the Environment Act which clearly allow biodiversity net gains to be delivered through a combination of on-site measures and off-site compensation. Part iii) of policy should be amended to reflect national policy and legislation and simply state “iii) through compensation off-site”.
