Given that two of the site allocations CHR16 and RWB5 covered by this Policy lie in the immediate setting of the National Landscape this policy should include criteria should require that development is sensitively designed to avoid or minimize harm to the natural beauty of the Kent Downs National Landscape. Without the assurances of site-specific requirements, the Plan does not provide the necessary certainty that sites would be delivered in a way that would conserve and enhance the natural beauty of the Kent Downs National Landscape as required by the CROW ACT Section 85 duty.
