The revision to TAN1 (2015) has not exacerbated the housing land supply position. It provided a standardised method of calculating housing land supply. The consequence is that Local Authorities cannot not use alternative methods of calculation (such as previous build rates) to rely on past performance a measure of success nor to continue to set aside their responsibilities to plan for the delivery of housing in accordance with National Planning Policy.

Noted. It is acknowledged that the residual method has always been the primary method of calculating land supply for authorities with adopted plans, however the past build rates method provided a 'sense-check' of the residual requirement which may indicate 'land shortages or surpluses, which do not exist in practice' (TAN1 2006 7.5.2)
