These are detailed and comprehensive conditions. It would be helpful to include a formal responsibility to advise Parish Councillors of the precise distribution in the case of developments in their area.

The updated guidance in this section of the SPD is welcomed. It is acknowledged that the starting point for the affordable housing mix is to be derived from the table contained in Paragraph 5.15 of the Planning Obligations SPD. However, it is welcomed that an alternative mix can be provided should this be justified against detailed local housing needs evidence, or evidence contained in Neighbourhood Plans. Such evidence should also include the revised HEDNA mix which will inform the new Local Plan.

The flexibility clause appears too open to subjective interpretation. Whist there needs to be flexibility, quantitative criteria would help to provide greater clarity on affordable housing mix.

Housing Mix

Paragraphs 5.13 to 5.17 of the SPD sets out the approach to housing mix including affordable housing mix. We previously commented on this section and note that it has been clarified that Table 1 provides a housing mix profile relating to affordable housing. This is a helpful clarification.

It is considered that the tenure split of affordable housing should make provision for First Homes. It is also considered that a different level or mix of affordable housing should be considered in a wider range of circumstances, not just to make the development viable, including when it will suit the character of the area or achieve more sustainable outcomes.

It should be clarified that Discounted Market Sales form part of the Intermediate tenure type and should be supported as part of the tenure mix include in the SPD.
