Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

The current drafting of the policy still leaves scope for internal policy conflict and uncertainty. Local Plan Policies H2 and H4 referenced, both cross refer to housing mix being informed by the latest SHMA. Draft Policy RLS5 advises that proposals should follow the strategic policies but also that within the NP area proposals should follow ‘any up to date local housing needs assessment’. There is clear potential for confusion here if the SHMA and any local NP area needs assessment provide conflicting housing mix evidence. Moreover, the policy should more clearly define what is meant by ‘any up to date’ assessment. Who is to have produced such an assessment, and with what oversight, rigour or testing? The policy could benefit from providing greater clarity on what is proposed, and how any potential policy conflict would be resolved.
