It is unclear what criterion k in respect of "making provision for specific groups in the community such as the elderly or those with disabilities" means in practice. There appears to be no reference or further detail in the explanation to the policy. It is neither clear what 'make provision' entails for a development proposal or what the Council considers 'specific groups' other than those listed.
HLM therefore object to the policy on the grounds that it is not consistent with the Framework in that it is not clear what is meant by the above criterion.

Paragraph 154 of the Framework requires that 'only policies that provide a clear indication of how a decision maker should react to a development proposal should be included in the plan'.
