Background reports have not been produced for the spatial framework area policies, as these generally pull together the relevant proposals contained within the thematic policies.
Each background report provides a detailed justification for the policy, explaining why the approach being proposed in the publication core strategy is considered to be the most appropriate, taking into account the technical evidence, national and regional planning policy and the comments received during the earlier stages of consultation on the core strategy.
To enquire into the cost of purchasing printed copies of any of the background reports, please email plans.consultation@salford.gov.uk or telephone 0161 793 3782.
