You've argued that the site is not practical to serve as a SANG. I think councils here take the argument quite seriously and want to test it properly. However, I know that the Hollands Farm allocation in the Wickham District Local Plan basically says that this is an adopted allocation. And my understanding is SANG mitigation needs to be within five kilometres of the site. My understanding again is, and please correct me if I'm wrong, is that this is the only site within that radius that has been assessed by Natural England as being suitable. So my question is, if you're saying that this site is not suitable, it's not practical, do you have any alternatives that meets Natural England's SANG requirement that's publicly accessible, of sufficient size? And, yeah, just looking forward to your thoughts on that. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
