HBF objects to the statement that the 'LDP target was unrealistic'.
HBF objects to the statement 'This issue was exacerbated in 2015 by changes to TAN1'.

Accepted in part. Whilst we acknowledge that the housing target was found sound at Examination, subsequent WG projections have indicated far lower housing requirements. The Inspector did not take into account the reduced level of delivery since 2008, although CCBC argued to reduce the requirement for this reason.
PPW does now change the emphasis to be given to WG household projections when calculating LDP household requirements than was the case PPW prior to Edition 8. This will be clarified.

The LDP housing target was not unrealistic. It was evidence based, consulted upon at Deposit, Examined and found to be Sound. This should be explicitly acknowledged.

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)
