National Planning Policy Framework –
NPPF - March 2012
Para 14 - At the heart of the National Planning Policy Framework is a presumption in favour of sustainable development, which should be seen as a golden thread running through both plan-making and decision-taking
Para 119 – this presumption does not apply where development requiring appropriate assessment under the Birds or Habitats Directives is being considered, planned or determined i.e. Whitmoor Common Special Protection Area (SPA, SSSI).

![Page 4: Guildford Draft Local Plan - Worplesdon Public Meeting 2nd July](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a884471a28abf8518b46fe/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Planning circular 06/2005Biodiversity and Geological Conservation
• Para 20 – “It is for the decision-taker to
consider the likely and reasonably foreseeable
effects and to ascertain that the proposal will
not have an adverse effect on the integrity of
the site before it may grant permission.”
![Page 5: Guildford Draft Local Plan - Worplesdon Public Meeting 2nd July](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042607/55a884471a28abf8518b46fe/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Circular 06/2005 – Para 21
“In the Waddenzee judgment, the European Court of Justice ruled that
a plan or project may be authorised only if a competent authority has
made certain that the plan or project will not adversely affect the
integrity of the SPA.
That is the case where no reasonable scientific doubt remains as to
the absence of such effects. Competent national authorities must be
convinced that there will not be an adverse affect and where doubt
remains as to the absence of adverse affects, the plan or project must
not be authorised, subject to the procedure outlined in Article 6(4) of
the EC Habitats Directive regarding imperative reasons of overriding
public interest.”
WHAT WILL THE CUMULATIVE IMPACT OF THE DRAFT LOCAL PLAN BE?
