SO4: the aspiration for green infrastructure is welcome, but we feel that the principle of access for all within any such green spaces should be embedded within this Plan from the top down; therefore, the Strategic Objectives of the Plan should contain this principle.
To make this Plan sound, we suggest that this objective is reworded thus: '...enhanced and integrated back into the built environment through accessible multi-functional green and blue infrastructure'.
