Housing Land Supply Shortage
A number of Council's, including Somerset West & Taunton and South Somerset, are unable to demonstrate a 5 year land supply. The implication is that housing policies, including settlement boundaries, are considered out of date. Housing proposals are assessed on their merits against the tests set out in the National Planning Policy Framework. This provides an opportunity for approval where outside but well related to existing settlements.
