Representation Summary:

We support the approach of this policy save for one element of specific wording under the heading of Sustainable Urban Drainage.
The first bullet requires that developments should “replicate Greenfield runoff rates and volumes.” This should only be applicable to sites that are indeed Greenfield, whereas on any brownfield site the approach should be to ensure that runoff rates and volumes are no greater than existing to avoid undue pressures that may affect off-site rates.
