The introduction of iterative evidence studies raises significant issues that I cannot overlook. While flexibility is often beneficial, in this case, it might lead to a fragmented Local Plan that lacks coherence. Stakeholders need a stable framework to understand how changes affect them and their community. If the evidence is subject to constant revision, how can we ascertain the reliability of the information guiding our planning decisions? I fear this approach may ultimately alienate community members who already struggle to navigate planning documentation. The lack of cemented policy could discourage effective feedback from knowledgeable citizens who wish to contribute.
