It is not considered that the Plan is positively prepared, justified or effective especially in light of the previous Reg 19 Publication Plan (i) 2022, and the evidence for that Plan which still exists. It does not adequately address the unmet need in relation to the housing shortfall for the Greater Birmingham and Black Country housing market area. The resulting major reduction in the housing proposed to address that unmet need within the latest Reg 19 Publication Plan, will have an impact on the level of unmet need remaining overall, increasing pressure on other adjoining authorities.
That South Staffordshire Council reconsider or revise the reduced level of housing proposed to better address the unmet need in relation to the housing shortfall for the Greater Birmingham and Black Country housing market area, to better reflect the relationship (e.g. in terms of commuting levels and travel to work areas) between South Staffordshire Council and Birmingham City and the four Black Country authorities and proportionately address the unmet needs.
