The broad scope of the spatial strategy is welcomed by BHL, in particular SSC’s approach to focusing significant growth at north of Penkridge, which reflects the settlement's suitability for development. However, given the economic context in the District in the upcoming plan period, SSC should incorporate an uplift above its standard method-derived LHN, which should be reflected in SSC's housing requirement. Moreover, a 20% buffer above that requirement should be incorporated in SSC's supply to provide flexibility in its housing supply and ensure that sufficient land comes forward to meet SSC's housing needs.
