The strategic objectives do not deal expressly with the amount of housing that needs to be delivered. In the absence of clearly setting out what the housing requirement is and whether the Plan is looking to meet Medway’s needs (which it should), the process of using the currently drafted objectives to inform the Council’s assessment of different sites and locations for development cannot be considered as “Positively Prepared” or “Justified”, contrary to the NPPF (para 35).
