Representation Summary:
If the Government had expected all properties to be built to NDSS then they would have made these standards mandatory not optional. Therefore, if the Council wishes to adopt this optional standard, it should be justified by meeting the criteria set out in the national policy, including need, viability and impact on affordability. An inflexible policy approach to NDSS for all new dwellings will impact on affordability and effect customer choice. Gladman do not consider that the requirement for all dwellings to be built to at least NDSS has been robustly justified by the Council at this stage.
