Support
Schedule of Potential Main Modifications
Representation ID: 29462
Received: 19/10/2021
Respondent: Sport England
The modified policy is supported as it would be considered to accord with Government policy in paragraph 99 of the NPPF (2021).
A minor drafting error in the new paragraph that follows paragraph 9.175 has been identified which requires addressing before the plan is adopted.
The proposed modification to sections 1(e) and the new paragraph that follows paragraph 9.175 of Policy R19 directly respond to representations made by Sport England on the pre-submission version of the plan and the modifications were subsequently agreed as part of the completed Statement of Common Ground with the Council. The modified policy is therefore supported as it would be considered to accord with Government policy in paragraph 99 of the NPPF (2021).
Before the plan is finalised for adoption, a minor drafting error has been identified. In the new paragraph that follows paragraph 9.175, the word ‘projects’ has been omitted from the end of the paragraph. This addition is required to make it consistent with section 1(e) and to allow the final paragraph to make sense. It is requested that this be amended to avoid any potential confusion when the policy is implemented.
