Objection is raised to this policy replicating Building Regulation requirements in relation to water efficiency. This should not be insisted upon at the planning stage where design SAP calculations are not possible until the technical stage of a design is reached. This is post- planning and forms part of the pre-construction phase of a project. It is often that the specification of appliances to be used in kitchens and bathrooms is unknown at the planning stage. It would be onerous on a developer to specify this level of detail prior to planning permission being granted.
