We are concerned that the wording requiring a minimum of 40% affordable housing may not allow sufficient flexibility to take into account viability or site specific factors. Consideration of viability is required to be consistent with para 173 of the NPPF.

With regard to sub point ii) sizes, types, and tenures of homes; flexibility is needed to allow for changing housing needs and market conditions over the time required to build an urban extension. Flexibility is needed to facilitate a wide range of factors being taken into account in determining overall housing mix.

We would recommend changing the words 'determined on' in the first line to 'guided by'.

There is a very real danger of creating pockets of relative social exclusion if the proportions of social rented tenures are inflexibly required.
