The Vision should recognise that there are unmet development needs outside of South Warwickshire that may need to be met within South Warwickshire. A Strategic Objective should also be to meet any unmet housing needs from communities elsewhere that cannot meet their needs, where it is practical and consistent with achieving sustainable development. This would align the strategic objective with the ‘positively prepared’ test of soundness.

Catesby Estates support the inclusion of land South East of Europa Way, Bishop’s Tachbrook (part of SG10) within the Plan. The Site is in a sustainable location, in accordance with the emerging Spatial Strategy. South East of Europa Way can deliver around 1,000 homes, primary school, community and retail facilities, and a substantial extension to Tachbrook Country Park. Sustainable transport connections to neighbouring areas and the towns can be achieved. The Site can deliver an environment sensitive development to meet a wide range of local housing needs. Development could come forward separately or in coordination with other parts of SG10.

It is imperative that the SWLP adequately considers accommodating unmet housing needs arising from outside of South Warwickshire. There are significant unmet needs arising from the GBBCHMA which require attention, and potential unmet needs arising from Coventry which should be taken account of accordingly. There is also potential for unmet needs arising from Cotswold District, Redditch Borough and Solihull Metropolitan Borough which should be considered. Failure to do so would render the SWLP not positively prepared nor effective and thus unsound in line with Paragraph 36 a) and c) of the NPPF.

Development proposals should endeavour to deliver the infrastructure set out in the transport strategies outlined, but the SWC’s must acknowledge the ability and need for strategic scale sites to deliver infrastructure that is considered important to a local community but not formally identified within an IDP or other transport strategy. Regarding infrastructure requirements for strategic allocations, the SWCs should collaborate with those bringing the site’s forward to understand site-specific requirements. Allocations with overly onerous infrastructure requirements may delay the delivery of sites due to viability or feasibility concerns. Requirements for infrastructure should not undermine the deliverability of the plan.

The South Warwickshire Councils must continually review the Local Housing Need up to adoption, they must consider an increased higher housing need, implement a 5% lapse rate to account for unimplemented commitments, and reassess the existing commitments and windfall allowance as outlined.
