2.4 Integration of Climate Change into the County Development Plan

Climate change mitigation and adaptation objectives have been incorporated into the policies of this Plan.  This is to ensure that climate change has been consistently integrated into the policy themes addressed by this plan.  Only those sources and impacts of climate change within the Statutory remit of the County Development Plan are included.

The Draft City and County Plan has aligned its policy and objectives with the Strategic Objectives of the NPF and the RSES to maintain and improve the County’s attraction in order to maximise investment opportunities.

This Plan has also taken cognisance of the Council’s own Climate Change Adaptation Strategy. Therefore, the transition to a low carbon economy and society is embedded in the policies and objectives of the Plan.
