We broadly support the principle that the SWLP should deliver a range of housing of differing sizes, types and tenures.

However, housing mix policies are oft drafted in a rigid manner, with little opportunity for flexibility of application to reflect site specific circumstances.

The policy should be drafted to allow for a range of housing types and tenures across the plan area, rather than across individual sites. The Councils could keep an up to date annual monitor to establish in each reporting year how the delivery is performing against the objectives of Policy Direction 10.

We strongly support first homes and other forms of discount from open market level, which provides for ‘second tier’ affordable provision delivered by the private sector without the need for any public intervention.
