Respondent: Bromham Parish Council

Level of Growth
Other studies have revealed that the growth figures calculated for the Bedford Borough area
are much higher than those for surrounding Local Authorities and one of the highest outside
the London Metropolitan Area. Bedford Borough Council should, therefore, produce a further
calculation based upon the latest ONS data which it is claimed would result in c. 900 homes
per annum. In addition, Bedford Borough Council has exceeded the previous Local Plan
target of 970 homes per annum and the Inspector has confirmed that the overbuild can be
taken forward into the next Plan.
