We object to the requirements set out in Draft Policy A which introduced the requirement for all new residential dwellings to comply with Nationally Described Space Standards.
Additionally, the requirement for all 1 and 2 bed affordable homes to support double/twin occupancy is not justified as the HEDNA does not provide clear justification for the need for this additional bedroom requirement nor has any evidence been produced to assess the impact of this requirement on viability and the efficient use of land.
There is no justification within the SWLP evidence base for 25% of affordable dwellings to meet the M4(3) standard and so we consider this element of the policy to be unjustified.
