“It’s about raising the 70% below the standard rather than improving the 30% that meets or exceeds the standard”
David Birkbeck

Simple scoring regime:
• Maximise greens • Minimise and challenge ambers*• Avoid reds
* Ambers should only be accepted where circumstances are beyond a developer’s control or otherwise robustly justified Note: Approvals with ambers should be the exception, not the norm

Surely 12/12 is less onerous than 14/20 – has design been watered down?
• 16.5 of old questions remain • Internal spaces not assessed (no national space standards) • Building Regulations - current and future • Being clear what’s ‘essential’ (i.e. BfL12) and what’s ‘nice to have’ (old Q.19-20) in terms of urban design

What not to do:
Use BfL12 to assess a scheme without having used it throughout the pre-application and community consultation process

Where do we go from here, James?
How do we get industry buy in?

1. Use BfL to structure pre-application discussions and public consultation
(It can also help if people change)

2. Set local expectations in policy
“We expect all developments to secure 12 greens”
Who here has BfL in their Core Strategy?

3. BfL Diamond status will help begin to raise consumer awareness and demand for better design
