3. Local Allocation LA3 Draft Master Plan  We would recommend delving into this, but first note that it is draft.  It is referred to at times as ‘The Master Plan’. Of particular note:
   
   The Vision statement which includes ‘It will be an inclusive community…….’.  (Page 20 (Section 5.1)).
   
   The reference to the ‘Designing Gypsy and Traveller Sites Good Practice Guide’ (May 2008) which is clearly superseded by the policy referred to in 1 above. (See Section 5.52 page 32.)
