This part includes vague ambitions to improve infrastructure, but nowhere is it mentioned how to achieve this in a sustainable fashion.
Evidence is needed to show how good low carbon public transport services will be provided between villages which have been formed as 'clusters' and share facilities such as shops, surgeries, schools and other basic conveniences.

We can find no mention of houses being built with installation of low carbon technology or increased use of low embodied carbon materials in construction.
Table 3.1 and 6.9
Houses : 'Support timely delivery of an appropriate mix of housing types and tenures to ensure supply of high-quality housing across the village clusters which meets the needs of South Norfolk residents and diversify the housing market to help maintain delivery.’
Mention should be made that houses will strive to attain zero carbon and use low embodied carbon materials in construction.

This car dependent form of development will increase emissions and is inconsistent with the following paragraph from the NPPF:
154: New development should be planned for in ways that:
b) can help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, such as through its location, orientation and design. Any local requirements for the sustainability of buildings should reflect the Government’s policy for national technical standards.
Evidence is needed to show how emissions will be reduced. Good low carbon public transport services should be provided between villages which have been formed as 'clusters' and share facilities such as shops, surgeries, schools and other basic conveniences.

SNGP oppose the concept of village clusters because it is not settlement hierarchy, which concentrates development in 'sustainable' locations i.e. where there are alternatives to private cars for most necessary trips. If you can't get between parts of the same cluster without a car, you are not improving the sustainability of those places.
