Draft Policy Direction 1 addresses housing needs for the new SWLP, referencing the 2022 Coventry & Warwickshire HEDNA and the Standard Method as outlined by the NPPF. However, it lacks a firm commitment to the required housing level. The SWLP should adhere to the Standard Method for determining housing need to ensure compliance with national policy and soundness. It is therefore recommend to plan for at least 2,188 dwellings per annum, with any deviations needing robust justification to avoid the plan being deemed unsound at examination.
