Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the accommodation provides satisfactory living conditions for current and future occupiers with particular regard to the size of the units
What decided it
The units at approximately 23sqm fall significantly short of the minimum 37sqm standard required by development plan policy and do not provide satisfactory living conditions for occupiers, which cannot be outweighed by modest housing supply benefits.
Plan policies cited: Policy D6 of the London Plan 2021, Policy P15 of the Southwark Plan 2019-2036, Policy P56 of the Southwark Plan, Policy H2 of the London Plan 2021, Policy P3 of the Southwark Plan, Policy IP4 of the Southwark Plan
