We note that the proposed total housing requirement for the period 2020 to 2040 of 25,500 dwellings, is derived from the annual requirement of 1,275 dwellings set by the Government’s standard method. Looking ahead to the way in which the options are presented, we consider that the total housing requirement for the Plan period should be expressed as a single figure, qualified by such phrases as “at least” or “a minimum of” to reflect national guidance and indeed paragraph 3.2 of the current Plan document. This is because of rather than despite the uncertainties briefly referred to at paragraph 3.3.
