Duty to co-operate? Yes

Please refer to the attached document for a detailed response. In summary we consider that policy H3 is not justified and is therefore not sound. The allocation of 75 homes to Wisborough Green is inconsistent with the approach to housing distribution set out in other policies. CDC has made a strong case for the reasons why development in the southern part of the district is constrained, but it is in error in then considering that the northern part of the district can accommodate additional development above that suggested during the Regulation 18 consultation. A sustainability-based approach does not support the proposed allocation and it should revert to that proposed at Regulation 18 stage.
