Decision
RESOLVED
That the position statement be published and used in decision-making
Reason for the decision:
· To comply with the requirement in the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) to identify and update annually a five-year supply of deliverable housing sites.
· To provide clarity and certainty for planning decision-making.
· To confirm that the Council is not subject to the NPPF’s “presumption in favour of sustainable development” which applies where a five-year supply cannot be demonstrated.
