The increased loss of open space provision should lead to a greater requirement for new, increased provision so the council should be urgently and ambitiously seeking a more ambitious target not reducing the expectation of open space provision. The heavily urbanised nature of the borough as well as the further demands relating to housing and employment land, make it the more important that new greenspace provision is appropriately equitable and of a good standard across all areas of the borough. We are keen to see a more ambitious target and certainly not a reduction in the requirement.
