Presumption in Favour of Sustainable Development Policy (Post NPPF 2018)

Presumption in Favour of Sustainable Development Policy (Post NPPF 2018)

Following the revision of the NPPF in July  2018 are other LPA's still including a specific "Presumption in Favour of Sustainable Development Policy" within their new/revised Local Plans? Recent research has seen a split in LPA's including the once standard wording which came about in 2012. 

The policy raises a major issues where there are already potential key conflicts with polices (highways/environmental etc), and the proposal is found to be in accordance with the development due to out of date policies/no five year housing land supply.

 

How are other areas looking to deal with this?
