Respondent: Mr Paul Luckock

Representation Summary:

It is vital that we have a preferred site(I understand this is ERF site in Mochdre) and a contingency site for the transit Gypsy/Traveller Site. Previous experience suggests that if we do not have a contingency site there is a high risk of the preferred site failing and no option in the period of the LDP for a site to be built. Opponents of sites will welcome no contingency site being in the LDP. Hence the importance of both a preferred site and contingency site.

Our response:

A G&T Transit Site to meet GTAA requirements will be allocated in the Deposit Plan. The provision of a contingency site is not required under WG guidance.

Representation Summary:

The Council's GTAA only covers the period 2017-2022. To ensure compliance with legislation and planning policy, a GTAA must be prepared and agreed by Welsh Ministers in advance of Deposit stage for the whole LDP period (2018-2033) with provision made for appropriate and deliverable site allocations to meet the need identified within the required timescales, if appropriate.
