Representation Summary:
Whilst this objective mentions housing generally, it does not set out how much housing will be provided. This is a determining factor in deciding what is the most appropriate spatial strategy is and should inform the basis of future strategic policies, as required by the NPPF (para 20 and 23). Whilst the Council seeks to meet its needs in full, there should be clearer in this strategic objective what the housing requirement per annum is and, overall, across the plan period to fully show that the plan is positively prepared and justified in accordance with paragraph 35 of the NPPF.
