The problem is how much growth will need to be considered. As the figure of 10,800 homes is based upon a projection then it is subject to wide errors and many acres of land may have been consumed by building before it is realized that the figure was wildly out.

I have yet to see an assessment of how much growth can be accommodated within the boundaries of the existing towns without destroying the precious green belt and agricultural land that makes England the beautiful place it is.

I find the figures used as the basis of this strategy unconvincing.
