The primary objective of the plan should be to provide for sustainable levels of growth in the district, in line with advice set out in the NPPF.
Para. 1.46 refers to a secondary objective, to provide a sustainable level of housing growth by identifying and maintaining a supply of land for housing to meet objectively assessed needs for market and affordable housing. Whilst this is entirely appropriate, it is not considered that it has sufficient regard to the emphasis in national policy for the need to boost significantly the supply of housing, in order to achieve five years worth of housing. As a consequence the Plan is not sound as it is not consistent with national policy and does not enable the delivery of sustianable development in accordance with the policies in the NPPF.
