Sub-point (iv) can only require ‘future-proofing’ to be secured through the application of reasonable allowances, rather than be treated as an absolute term, and hence is ineffective in its current form.
In Sub-point (v), if the intention is to ensure that appropriate fixed commuted sums are identified to cover a period of maintenance for infrastructure, this should be stated.
Consider revising (iv) wording to:
“Appropriate allowances should be made to future-proof development to take account of the impacts of climate change, ….”
Consider the following wording for (v):
“To consider and meet the costs of construction for infrastructure, including for its future management and maintenance through appropriate commuted sum payments”.
Criterion (vii) - to be effective for all site-specific circumstances, suggest ‘where possible’ be added after the word ‘benefits'.
