The policy in relation to the Part M optional technical standards is unsound because the adoption of these optional technical standards has not been justified. Before these can be adopted in the local plan the Council will need to demonstrate need and the effect on viability. The Viability Testing for the Ipswich Development Plan report, December 2014, has not assessed the cost of applying these standards. The DCLG report: Housing Standards Review: Cost Impacts, September 2014 summarises the costs (p.38). The Council will also need to justify the 35% figure for Part M(2) and the percentage figure for Part M4(3).
