BP37 needs to go much further than simply avoiding the sterilisation of aggregate resources. It should provide information regards ensuring the sustainable management of minerals resources to meet the Council's growth aspirations. As mentioned in the Consultation Paper the Council is required to ensure an adequate supply of minerals is maintained. This must be done to accord with PPWv10, the RTS and such information as the AM Surveys and the documentation produced by the NWRAWP. There is also an element of confusion arising from the notion that terms such as "aggregate" and "minerals" and also "reserves" and resources are interchangeable.

Noted. BP37 will be more detailed on the lines suggested. The draft document covers the following headings; policy context, findings from LDP AMR monitoring process, contextual changes, safeguarding, mineral supply, buffer zones, monitoring and cross border issues.
