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'.
The HBF does not agree with the statement that the 'LDP target was unrealistic'. At the time it was based on the information available and went through scrutiny at the plans inquiry and was adopted by the Council. Although circumstances and the data available may now have changed, at the time it was the appropriate target.
The HBF object to the statement 'This issue was exacerbated in 2015 by changes to TAN1'. The method of calculation does not directly affect the land supply as the wording suggests. TAN1 is purely a method by which to monitor the land available. One of the reason TAN1 was changed was that WG realised that relying on past build rates gave a false land supply figure and merely allowed Councils to continue to fail in the supply of new homes. An LDP should be about planning for the future needs and demands of the area as well as taking account of economic and other aspirations. A plan based on past records would be to plan for continued failure.

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.
