The polices set out in the SWLP as currently drafted, are neither positively prepared nor consistent with national policy. Relying on outdated evidence to justify an annual housing requirement of 1,679 dpa and incorrectly treating the Standard Method’s 2,188 dpa as a maximum figure, undermines the plan.
To address this, the emerging policy should specify that provision will be made for at least 2,188 dpa, equating to a minimum of 54,700 dwellings over the plan period. Evidence shows that this target is achievable, with over 2,188 completions in six of the last eight years across South Warwickshire. Adopting this higher figure would not undermine the plan's effectiveness
