Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Yes

We support the aspirations for the town centres but believe that the unambitious and passive proposals listed remain as aspirations only rather than constituting robust policies.

We suggest that this section falls well short of the requirements set by the NPPF s86 in particular with reference to adaptation and residential development.
