Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

It is unsound to allocate the entire Ipswich Northern Fringe when its delivery may not be viable over the plan timescales. To lower this risk the CS should include a plan based on co-operating more closely with neighbouring LAs to deliver homes growth. The Council's population forecast should not be based on a high immigration scenario, which is inconsistent with the policies of all main political parties.
