Please see below AIUK's response to Norfolk Minerals and Waste Local Plan Consultation May 2018.

Minerals and Waste Local Plan Vision implies sand and gravel sales shall remain within Norfolk, It is hoped Norfolk will support sand and gravel demand within the region in addition to being self-sufficient.

MW4 seeks a minimum of 10 % of energy used on site to be generated from decentralised and renewable or low-carbon sources. The geographical location of minerals sites, phased operation and temporary nature hinders the ability to implement the aims of MW4.

WP1 Waste Management Capacity to be provided - waste statistics are not comprehensive or robust therefore I believe flexibility should be built into the policy allowing sites to come forward based upon market need.

MP1 Provision for Minerals Extraction - It is considered production capacity should be captured within this policy to ensure deliverability of a steady supply of mineral.

MP7 Progressive working, restoration and after-use - It is considered Best and Most Versatile soils should be recognised as a preferred afteruse.

We would be obliged if the above comments can be taken into account in the consultation process.

AIUK welcome being involved with the Minerals and Waste review process and are happy to meet in relation to these representations.
