SI7 – Accessible GP Practices

New major residential developments should make appropriate funding towards GP provision where pressure on services is increased. Applicants should engage with the relevant health authorities at the earliest possible stage to agree the increase in capacity required to facilitate the proposed development. Developers of significant residential developments, should include on-site provision unless relevant health authorities express a preference for contribution to another facility within the Neighbourhood Plan Area.
