Subsection (a) refers to a dwelling range of between 5,600 - 5,850 to be provided. It is misleading as this could be interpreted as a minimum and maximum requirement. The imposition of a maximum requirement would be in conflict with the South East Plan It should be clearly noted that both figures are minimum figures.
subsection (b), the Core Strategy should not seek to unduly restrict the delivery of development.

Whilst the principle behind subsection (c) is supported, greenfield land is not supported which represents a very important source of housing land supply. Objection to the wording in paragraph 5.65 which suggests that Greenfield development should be considered as the last option. (c) should acknowledge the contribution that greenfield development can provide in meeting the District's housing requirement.
