Representation Summary:

Policy Overreach Without Deliverability
Policy T27 is commendable in intent but fails to be effective. It sets ambitious objectives for health infrastructure, green space, access to care, and active travel. However, there is no linked Infrastructure Delivery Plan (IDP) or funding mechanism to guarantee delivery. The commitment is rhetorical unless backed by enforceable mechanisms like developer contributions, phasing triggers, and formal agreements with health bodies
