Paragraph 1.46 states that the Local Plan will identify and maintain a supply of land for housing to meet the objectively assessed needs for market and affordable housing. This objective of the Local Plan is supported as sound and responds to the issue of affordability identified at paragraph 1.30 part (b) of the Plan and the strategic priority to provide the homes the District needs identified at paragraph 1.42 of the Plan. There is a concern that in practice the policies of the Plan which follow (particularly Policy DS6) are at risk of failing to meet the objectively assessed need for housing contrary, not only to the NPPF, but to the strategic priority and objective 1 of the draft Plan.
