- Development plan policies
- Policy S4Policy S4(C)
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 80
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
