The Local Plan makes no reference to the self-build housing as required by paragraphs 50 and 59 of the NPPF. It is not therefore legally compliant in that it fails to comply with Section 19(2) of the 2004 Act which requires plans to have regard to national policy.

Self build homes are important (as indicated by recent government announcements) and are important in providing a high quality built environment.
