The NPPF is currently under review and may result in a shift in Government Policy on development - particularly on housing targets. We feel that the publication of the Chichester Local Plan pre-empts the outcome of the consultation and potential change in national planning policy.
The timescale of the plan submission should be amended to allow for the confirmation of national planning policy. In the meantime, to guard against speculative development, there should be a moratorium on building in the district.
