Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

The proposed wording of MM7 represents an improved policy position over that set out in the submission Core Strategy. However, it remains our view that a fully criteria-based approach, with an up-to-date SHMA as the first priority, would make for a more effective policy. In any event, the final paragraph of the policy should recognise that up-to-date evidence may superseded the affordable housing position statement where that is not up-to-date, thereby ensuring that the policy is effective.

Modification suggested in full text.
