Representation Summary:

I would suggest that a final sentence is added to this paragraph along the lines of 'Some core buildings are of significance and those of greatest significance will be retained.' This will then acknowledge that the Mond Building is listed and will be kept, but allow the Mond Annex (a BLI) to be removed.

Representation Summary:

A new entrance from Benets Yard is proposed through the renovated Arts School presumably to serve as a pedestrian and not vehicular access into the central sqaure and to the Student Services Centre; in keeping with the renovated wing of the Alts School and Benets Yard presumably.
