Justification for Preferred Option - Gypsies and Travellers

Representation ID: 46745

Received: 22/07/2012

Respondent: Derbyshire Gypsy Liaison Group

Representation Summary:

A clear time frame for the production of evidence (the GTAA) and the delivery of a site or sites needs to be set out. The original GTAA was published in 2008, and there seems to have been very little done practically in the 4 years since then other than produce a few reports which themselves also have little weight. It is agreed that the original GTAA was poor - it is unlikely that the council would be heading into an examination if the mainstream housing figures were unknown and this approach is contrary to national policy.

Representation Summary:

Several of the criteria in the policy go beyond national policy and will render the policy ineffective at delivering new sites since the policy is too restrictive.
