The SA would benefit from additional consideration and clarity as the Plan progresses. Areas for improvement include:
i. Confirmation of why updates to policy and Government strategy do not require alterations to the Sustainability Framework;
ii. Baseline data should reflect the latest available datasets.;
iii. Further clarification on how mitigation measures have been factored in to scoring the reasonable alternatives;
iv. For climate change mitigation, consideration of whole life carbon in developments, ecosystem services and reduction in travel should all be considered alongside the “hard” measures focused on energy efficiency in buildings and low carbon energy sources
