  • Have sport and recreation issues been addressed within the AAP, in respect of the protection and enhancement of facilities and/or opportunities for new provision where new development is planned? [see the example of South Cambridgeshire, Northstowe AAP and Cambridgeshire East AAP]
  • Are there opportunities to address sport and recreation issues within AAPs covering areas of comprehensive regeneration? [an example of where sport and recreation interests are being dealt with as part of wider regeneration is the Chelmsford Town Centre Area Action Plan
  • In all cases, are policies and proposals based on a comprehensive assessment of need, using data from the PPG17 assessment, other relevant sport and recreation strategies and any area-specific studies conducted as part of the preparation of the evidence base for the AAP and associated SA/SEA?
  • Have Sport England’s resources relating to Active Design, and the attendant principles of improving accessibility, enhancing amenity and increasing awareness been reviewed?
