The Core Strategy should not seek to address possible lower levels of growth, in view of the provisional nature of the South East Plan requirement, but ensure flexibility and housing land supply to meet higher growth levels. Lower growth levels would exacerbate the District’s affordability issue and promote the loss of working age population.

The Council should support higher growth levels to improve the internal sustainability of the District and its settlements.
