The matter of whether a plan is considered ‘sound’ will be for the appointed Planning Inspector to determine.

The Welsh Governments representations are separated into 4 categories which are supported with more detail in the attached annex. Category A: Objection under soundness tests C2, CE2: Fundamental issues that are considered to present a significant degree of risk for the authority if not addressed prior to submission stage, and may have implications for the plan’s strategy: (i) Housing Provision (ii) Affordable Housing Target (iii) Scale of Employment Allocations (iv) Deliverability of Employment (v) Mineral Safeguarding and Apportionment Category B: Objections under soundness tests C2, CE1, CE2: Matters where it appears that the deposit plan has not satisfactorily translated national policy down to the local level and there may be tensions within the plan, namely: (i) -

Appendix- Individual project plans 21 Pill Unity Invest Local Driving Change Plan 2020 Developed by the Pill Group 1. Introduction and the story so far Pillgwenlly is one of 13 areas across Wales to receive £1 Million To help residents make their community a better place to live. Known as Invest Local, this programme is funded by the Big Lottery, managed by Building Communities Trustee Ltd (BCT) and is led by residents. In Pillgwenlly, it is we the residents who decide how we want our community to develop, how the money will be used, which organisations we want to work with and how decisions are made. After over three years’ hard work, we are proud to have produced our first Driving change Plan which will enable us to access the first part of the £1 million that is available to invest across Pillgwenlly. The reason we are proud of our plan is that it has been hard work because we have tried to capture as wide a range of insights as possible from those who live and work in our community.
