There is no evidence justifying the need for 20% BNG onsite and why there should be a higher requirement than what is set out in the Environment Act. The viability assessment does not consider the great impact on the deliverability of some sites and could prevent many sites coming forward for development. The policy should be in line with the national legislation with 10% net gain.
