Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

When considering this policy, it will be necessary for the Council to take into account the Government’s policy on the delivery of electric vehicle charging points. The Government have indicated that this will become a requirement for all new homes with a dedicated parking space and is likely to set out the type of charging facility to be provided. As we set out in our comments on policy CC/NZ it will be important for the Council not to apply its own standards where these are set out in Building Regulations to avoid confusion and conflict between local and national requirements.
