MM30 - Paragraph MP1.4, Page 68

Representation ID: 99599

Received: 13/12/2024

Respondent: Breedon Trading Limited

Legally compliant? Not specified

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Not specified

Representation Summary:

Breedon objects to this Main Modification MM30. MM30 is not positively prepared and is not consistent with national policy.
Norfolk County Council (‘NCC’) has not taken into consideration Paragraph 226 of the National Planning Policy Framework (2024) (‘NPPF’) which states:
“Minerals planning authorities should plan for a steady and adequate supply of aggregates by:
a) preparing an annual Local Aggregate Assessment, either individually or jointly, to forecast future demand, based on a rolling average of 10 years’ sales data and other relevant local information, and an assessment of all supply options (including marine dredged, secondary and recycled sources)”
Breedon maintain that the Plan needs to reflect NCC’s own finding for future aggregate demand set out in its own Local Aggregate Assessment (2022) (‘LAA’). The LAA identifies significant housing demand, economic demand, population growth and infrastructure requirements.
To remove this objection, Breedon suggest the last sentence of MM30 is amended to read:
“However, in order to plan for future growth [insert: in line with the LAA], the 10-year sales average is considered to be [delete: slightly] too low to use when forecasting future need for a steady and adequate supply of aggregate in Norfolk."
This amendment will link the forecast to the LAA ensuring MM30 seeks to meet objectively assessed need so that it is positively prepared. It also ensures that MM30 is consistent with national policy. It avoids a scenario where NCC solely consider historic sales trends when considering future demand.

Representation Summary:

Breedon objects to this Main Modification MM33. MM33 is not positively prepared and is not consistent with national policy.
NCC has updated its figures based on the note updating sand and gravel provision [‘Update on the sand and gravel, carstone and silica sand provision within the Norfolk Minerals and Waste Local Plan’]. However, NCC has failed to have regard to future demand for sand and gravel set out in the LAA, as discussed at the EIP and as Breedon set out in its Hearing Paper on Main Matter 3.
The 10% flexibility figure was discussed with the Inspector and regarded as a buffer against Specific Sites not coming forward for development. It was not regarded as a measure to meet future growth demand for sand and gravel, as is indicated by the housing allocations, economic growth, population growth and infrastructure projects outlined in the LAA. These indicators suggest growth beyond that experienced over the past 10 years.
Breedon contends that either a 20-year sales average or 10-years sales average plus a 20% buffer should be used in the calculations to ensure that the Plan meets future growth forecasts outlined in the LAA. This change is suggested as the Plan simply rolls forward historic demand. It does not plan or consider the scenario outlined in the LAA which indicates that growth will significantly increase.
This amendment will link the forecast need to the conclusions of the LAA ensuring MM33 seeks to meet objectively assessed need ensuring it is positively prepared. It also ensures that MM33 is consistent with national policy, noting Paragraph 226 of the NPPF.
