We support the requirement that all new development should comply with the NDSS.
However, we make detailed objections to the provisions of Policy A.
It should not be a requirement that all 1 and 2 bedroom affordable homes be built with bedrooms capable of accommodating 2 occupiers in each bedroom. The NDSS expressly provides for a 2 bedroom 3 person home. From experience, 1 bedroom properties are largely taken up by single occupants.
Furthermore, we object to 100% of all new open market housing achieving M4(2) standards. This is a disproportionate requirement, it is not evidenced as being a requirement of the SWLP, and as a result we would suggest a maximum of 50% of all new affordable housing being required to achieve this standard.
