Disagree with housing number.
Strategic Housing Needs Study (2015) is significantly out of date.
Apparent that no account has been taken of overspill from the Birmingham Local Plan.
Proposed 2000 figure is a significant under-estimate of actual housing needs in area.
New SHMA for whole HMA should be undertaken.
Given Solihull's strategic location and importance to wider regional economy, it should take a much more significant proportion of the unmet need of the wider HMA.
Suggest a figure of 20% should be tested.
