Who's planning for more?

摘要

The 2018 National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) requires local authorities to plan for housing using the standard method for assessing local housing need.The new methodology was justified by Government as being transparent, easy to use and consistent with the government's target to deliver 300,000 homes annually.Applying the standard method figures nationally would provide for 273,000 homes to be delivered. The Government therefore needs councils to plan for more to achieve its 300,000 homes per year ambition.
