Policy H4 should be completely rewritten. It currently does not take account of the national policy on meeting all housing needs and falls short of the standard set by the council's own Local Plan of 2018.

Self build and custom housing needs more detailed provision in this plan. Currently it is completely inadequate and will not meet the needs of local residents. The district's infrastructure will also not support these plans.

Policy H3 also should relate directly to the number of custom build sites that will be allocated. Currently the 50 sites allocated for housing will not be served well by local infrastructure because of poor local transport links and the lack of nearby green spaces, which, are sparse at best. There needs to be a direct link between this and the main policies on these topics.
