Yes. However, we would welcome strengthening of Policy DM25 clause 5 to make it clearer that over-sized dwellings which are much larger than the functional requirement will not be allowed.

This advice note should at the very least be retained (and specifically referred to in the policy) to enable adequate control over this type of development.

Yes. We support the need for schemes to be generally modest in scale, in keeping with the form and character of the settlement and in line with a robust housing needs assessment. We would also stress the need for such schemes to be developed in close consultation with any relevant local Parish and/or Town Council.

We cannot see why it would not apply to all smaller settlements, but subject to criteria such as those we identify in our answer to Q HO15.

Only where this is clearly justified by robust and independent viability evidence, kept to a minimum level and where the overall benefits of the scheme clearly over-ride any planning harm.

Yes. Gypsy and traveller sites should not be allowed in the Green Belt (including “grey belt”).
