Whether a planning policy was a general one to be included in the structure plan, or a detailed one to be included in the local plan, was a matter of judgement by the local authority, provided only that it directed itself correctly as to the meaning of ‘general policies’ as set down in statute and case law. It was not necessary for a general plan made by two neighbouring authorities to deal with land in both boroughs.
