This report draws on innovative approaches through which the planning system can address sustainable construction in a more proactive way than it might think possible. It identifies the hooks in planning national guidance that allow policy and DC planners to move the sustainability agenda forward in a comprehensive and consistent way. It addresses the role of Local Plan Policies and statements of intent; Development Briefs for key sites; Supplementary Planning Guidance on sustainable construction; the role of Voluntary Sustainable Housing Standards. It provides a range of hugely useful information: indications of model policies that can be used or adapted to the local situation; draft Voluntary Sustainable Housing Standards.
