As I say it is the absence of a clear statement about none protected sites in the development control process that is the concern.
We are talking about a different PPG 16. PPG 16 uses the phrase nationally important sites scheduled or unscheduled. It says preservation in situ is the preferred option etc etc.
I think PPG 16 uses the phrase the key to protecting the vast majority of sites is the planning system.
So I ask where is the clear statement that the PPG 16 system of protection (or managed change) will be unaltered. AAI are being scrapped so what mechanism/system will be replacing the provision of the right to excavate them?
