Policy H2 should be re-worded in order to clarify that the overall requirement of 40% affordable housing can be reduced based on viability. In its current form the policy appears to allow for the: form of provision of affordable housing; location on the site of affordable housing; and the means of delivery of affordable housing to be subject to negotiation at the time of a planning application, and it states that the viability of the development will be a consideration in such negotiations.
However, this does not clearly state that the actual proportion of affordable housing can be negotiated based on the viability of a site, which when considered against paragraph 173 of the NPPF is something which a developer should clearly be capable of doing.
