We broadly support the requirements to make efficient use of brownfield land. Recycling previously developed land can (though not always) achieve a series of sustainability objectives.

However, the scale of housing required in the plan area – even by the HEDNA evidence, which is significantly below the Standard Method and before adding in the duty to co-operate – is such that brownfield opportunities are insufficient to make even a small contribution to overall housing delivery in the plan area.

Furthermore, we object to any suggestion that a sequential approach should be taken to bringing forward brownfield sites ahead of green field opportunities.
