The paragraph should emphasise, as raised in other representations, the true value of the Goodwood Estate to the local and National Economy.

Goodwood Estate generates an estimated economic contribution of £435m into the national economy and £125m in tax contributions, of which £314m and £100m respectively benefit the local economy (2019 Study by London School of Economics). Consequently, one of the area's most significant providers of employment, homes and economic benefit, is under threat from inappropriate adjacent development. The Plan should ensure the benefits provided by Goodwood and its operations are sustained by appropriate policy protection and opportunity.
