SuDS Standards for Wales – Consultation launched
The Welsh Government has published interim national standards for sustainable drainage for consultation until such time as it determines the most effective way of embedding SuDS principles in new developments.These interim standards will enable designers, property developers, local authorities and other interested parties to both demonstrate that they have taken account of the Welsh Government’s planning advice on Development and Flood Risk and to pilot the standards, so that if necessary they can be revised before being placed on a statutory footing.
The consultation runs from 12 February until 30 April 2015 and details will be found on the Welsh Government website.
