Essex County Council is supportive of the intention to seek to retain B uses, including general industry, on identified employment sites/estates. However, the same protection should also be provided to `sympathetic' sui generis uses such as waste management facilities. ECC would seek to amend the policy to read:

`Planning permission will be refused for the redevelopment or change of use of business, offices, general industry (and sympathetic sui generis uses) and distribution sites.....'
