Representation Summary:
Vision:
At paragraph 4 of the Vision change the term ‘mineral reserves’ in the paragraph on safeguarding to ‘mineral resources’ in line with BGS guidance and national policy. It is noted that the term ‘resources’ not ‘reserve’ is used in SO4.
We believe the vision should be stronger about meeting the growth needs of the community; i.e. providing a steady and adequate supply of minerals, as required by NPPF, to meet objectively assessed development needs, and then say you will also make an appropriate contribution to wider local and national needs.
