Need to address contribution to wider HMA shortfall, as current figure arbitrary and yet to be agreed, and carries little weight. Any change in numbers potentially requires change in range/number of sites, so additional sites likely to be required. Council should seek views on potential of sites currently discounted. May require change to spatial strategy to ensure sound.
Issue of safeguarded land not addressed. Further green belt land likely to be required in next review, so land should be removed from green belt and safeguarded for future needs to avoid future green belt changes and comply with NPPF.
