Their content reflects the diversity of our worldwide family of Friends. FWCC was formed in 1937 to provide opportunities for Friends to meet, to talk and come to a better understanding of each other, thereby deepening their spiritual life and strengthening their outreach. It includes in its membership yearly meetings from all the traditions described here as well as small groups and individuals. It has four regional groupings. These are Africa Section (with 43% of world membership), Section of the Americas (47%), Asia West Pacific Section (4%) and Europe and Middle East Section (6%). Britain Yearly Meeting belongs to FWCC and to its Europe and Middle East Section, of which it is by far the biggest yearly meeting. In the USA, many yearly meetings of the unprogrammed tradition belong not only to FWCC but also to Friends General Conference (FGC), whilst programmed yearly meetings may belong to Friends United Meeting (FUM) and evangelical yearly meetings to Evangelical Friends Churches International (EFCI).

In response to this, the Council has prepared a Net-Zero Carbon Development Plan Document (‘NZC DPD’), which will enable the District to be as close as possible to net carbon zero by 2030. The DPD defines ‘carbon’ as “all greenhouse gases excluding water vapour… [which] will require the reduction of all greenhouse gases, of which carbon dioxide is the most prominent”. The DPD identifies a suite of policies designed to help the Council meet its objective of tackling climate change and achieving net- zero carbon development by 2030. 1.2 This report tests the ability of developments in Warwick District to accommodate the policies in the consultation version of the NZC DPD, alongside plan policies in the adopted Plan and prevailing rates of Community Infrastructure Levy (‘CIL’) in the Council’s adopted Charging Schedule (subject to indexation).

The Coalition Government has recently published the Localism Bill which intends to bring forward reforms to the planning system and will have implications for the publication of AMR’s. To quote Government guidance, ‘monitoring is essential to establish what is happening now, what may happen in the future and … to determine what needs to be done.’ 1 The Act currently requires each local planning authority to submit an annual report to the Secretary of State.
