Representation Summary:

Taking into account all of the other policy demands upon delivering housing schemes, delivery could be seriously compromised by the requirement of Policy P4D. Given that the current system now generally discourages debate on viability at the decision-taking stage, with such matters expected to be addressed when plan-making, it cannot be assumed that this policy would work in practice. SMBC should not be relying upon developers to provide for all self and custom-build housing in fulfilment of its legal duty and should be exploring other options for delivery. Without evidence of other options having been thoroughly explored, L&Q Estates object to this policy.
