5.5. The 2004 AVDLP could not, of course, have anticipated the existence of
the Localism Act almost a decade later and so made no provision for translating
generic planning policy into a distinct parish-based plan. The Neighbourhood
Plan generally conforms to the relevant saved policies of the Aylesbury Vale District
Local Plan (AVDLP) of 2004. The policies starting with GP are all those that are
saved which are applicable to the whole district, including Ickford, except GP3
as this was superseded by the NPPF. There is no definition of ‘strategic’ policy
available for the AVDLP, so all the relevant saved policies are listed below. All of
the policies for Rural Areas (starting with RA) which are not location specific,
are applicable. There are a large number of other saved policies, but most of them
are not relevant to the Neighbourhood Plan.
