We wish to register our concerns about some aspects of the Draft Interim Housing Policy Statement , particularly concerning environmental matters:
1. It does not appear to make adequate provision for wide enough wildlife corridors following all the chalk streams that connect the South Downs National Park with the Chichester Harbour AONB.
2. It does not seem to address the issue of making all future developments in this area nutrient neutral. And all new housing should be built so as to be as near carbon neutral as possible.
3. It does not take account of climate change and future flooding possibilities.
4. It should insist that all necessary infrastructure is in place before houses are built.
