Larger new settlements would be preferred (c.3000 homes) to stimulate the local economy (creating jobs, attracting businesses), improve infrastructure, and provide more affordable living options with better living standards for residents. Some of the suggested locations offer more opportunities than others, being more or less well connected to local services.

New settlements offer the opportunity to design well-planned communities to include energy-efficient buildings, green spaces, and sustainable transport, providing rewarding and sustainable places to live. The benefit to, and impact on, current residents has to be weighed very carefully, and certainly not to the detriment of existing well-established rural communities.
