We recognise the immense challenges associated with transitioning to a net zero carbon District however these will only get harder and more costly if the Local Plan is not ambitious in addressing these matters in detail at this stage.

Should new housing be required this must be built with the highest insulation standards to promote energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy to prevent fuel poverty as a priority and avoid the need for retrofitting at a later date.
