There are a number of ambiguous statements in planning policies SS9 and SS10.
The existing policies CS4, CS16 and SP7 provide a greatly level of clarity than the new policies and it is easier to see how a planning decision will be reached on planning applications. These new policies do not provide a robust or enforceable position with which to defend the county from unwanted development in the countryside.

The lack of clarity will lead to the ruination of rural Rutland, with farms becoming industrial estates warehouses and storage units, rather than being there to feed the nation and as custodians of the natural environment we all enjoy.

The new policies do not have the required level of clarity to provide a clear understanding of what development will and will not be classed as acceptable in the countryside.

There is insufficient means to control the overall development of a series of agricultural buildings on the same site. This issue has recently arisen at Vine Farm in Morcott. The policy should be changed to specify that the same limits on development (floor space/number of dwellings) must apply when applying for or granting consent for new development following or replacing consent granted by Class Q Permitted Development. This would allow more control on the eventual size of a development made initially under Class Q but updated by replacement "improved” applications.
The numbers of Permitted Developments under Class Q or s80 must be counted in the statistics as “windfall” or other in meeting the housing need numbers.
