Whilst the District Council's desire to encourage and provide for employment growth is understood and appreciated, the inference given by proposed Main Modification that the supply of jobs 'in the area' is obstructive, contrary to various aspects of National Planning policy as set out i the NPPF - for example the presumption in favour of sustainable development set out in paragraph 14, would not be effective in delivering growth - indeed it would act as a constraint to development, and is entirely unjustified by any evidence. Furthermore, the interpretation and application of the proposed Modification could render it unlawful.
