Representation Summary:

Paragraph 9.8 is not supported as these go against PPS3 advice in paragraph 30.
The Council should, therefore, go further than encouraging Parish Councils to carry out research, and seek to include within the Core Strategy and evidence base information regarding local needs. In doing so, evidence would point to those areas of greatest need and allow the Council to set out a robust policy on rural exceptions sites to allow for 100% affordable housing provision. This would strengthen the Core Strategy and further assert the Council's commitment to contributing to the vitality of rural communities through affordable housing provision.
