notes
The housing requirement calculated using the standard method is currently 1,185 homes per annum. This will be updated as the plan progresses.

How to fix this issue

Your data is missing a required-housing.

The Local plan guidance explains how to fix the issue:

required-housing

Enter the minimum number of homes that the plan expects to provide during the plan period.

You must provide your required-housing when you launch your consultation on your proposed local plan. You must update your required-housing when you:

  • submit your plan for examination
  • publish the examiner’s recommendations and reasons
  • publish your adopted local plan

For example:

  • 10852
  • 10012
