Representation Summary:

This paragraph includes the assertion that, because of a lack of housing land in the Borough, there will need to be negotiation with neighbouring authorities regarding future housing provision. The sentence appears to pre-suppose that there is no additional suitable land within the Ipswich boundary, which is not the case, and that decisions on locations should happen in the future. The relevant sentence requires deletion.

Representation Summary:

The technical appendix to the Ipswich Housing Market Area Population and Household Projections report (September 2013) demonstrates that there are unresolved concerns about household headship rates. It is also unclear how the ONS data have been used as the Projections report refers to the use of an 'adapted version' of the CLG household model. Also the Housing Topic Paper makes no reference to the ONS household estimates used in the Projections report, which is of concern given that both result in a greater number of households than the trend based forecast adopted by the Council. This must be resolved.
