Representation Summary:

We support the Council's intention to provide affordable homes.
However, we object to a blanket requirement of 40%: this is too prescriptive. It is not justified or effective and the policy is therefore unsound. The policy should make it clear that the amount of affordable housing will be determined on a site by site basis with an overall aim of achieving 40% where possible and viable, in order to be sound.
