The housing numbers are highly speculative and based on poor quality evidence and data. The LPA calculate a need for 12,900 dwellings, while another equally competent assessment reached a figure of 5,500. Given pressure from developers to develop areas of high property value it would be safer to plan for lower figures. This could be revised upward if need were demonstrated. Recent ONS figures show a reduction of 29% on previous estimates showing need for caution in using this data. Insufficient planning for additional infrastructure necessary to support the level of growth, this would be constrained by the historic nature of Warwick and Warwick Hospital. Proposals are not in line with the principles of sustainability.
