Representation Summary:

Policy HW2 (healthcare infrastructure)
3.39 Subject to there being an evidenced need, IM Land welcomes part 7 of this policy and
the requirement for onsite healthcare provision. Indeed potential provision is already
allowed for in the site’s illustrative masterplan. To satisfy NPPF paragraph 16 the policy
should only refer to an identified requirement, rather than a ‘likely requirement’,
which would render this part of the policy ambiguous.
