* Concern remains on the clarity of the Draft Infrastructure Development Plan July 2018 TDC (CD1.2). This should be re-reviewed in light of new information regarding Bethesda, and the provision of medical facilities of the plan. They are not clearly marked out and the recruitment position of GPs is unclear. Planning consideration should be made on whether medical services are sustainable to new development

Gladman note that a number of amendments are proposed to the wording of Policy SP01 to improve the effectiveness and clarity of the policy.

We are concerned that the requirement for off-site contributions, for example, towards Strategic Road Network schemes may not always be captured in the Infrastructure Delivery Plan. Therefore the text should make it clear that the IDP is not the only source/ generator of contributions. |

It is no good 'expecting' all new development to meet its infrastructure requirements, there should be an absolute requirement that all new development must fully meet its' infrastructure requirements.
Furthermore there should be full enforcement of robust penalties for developers failing to meet requirements including legal action and prevention of any further development until agreed infrstructure requirements are delivered.
In order to protect existing communities the policy should further |

Stringent enforcement regarding agreed developer's contributions, be that infrastructure, affordable housing quota, community contributions etc., will require adequate staffing numbers and a zero tolerance approach to back-sliding. |
