IBC has an agreement with neighbouring councils to undertake further policy work which addresses growth needs of the IPA, including potential unmet housing need from IBC. CSP therefore consider that IBC has demonstrated that it has engaged with neighbouring authorities and has a strategy in place to address its housing land supply. However, IBC is seeking to: "... rely on windfall sites and will work with neighbouring local authorities to address housing need later in the plan period (CS7)." IBC should ensure that it continues proactively to explore options of accommodating housing overspill through the whole plan period.
