One of the most talked-about updates in the new National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) is the proposed Standard Method for determining Local Housing Need. This method will be fundamental to creating Local Plans. When applied across the country, this updated method results in a need for 371,541 dwellings each year. This figure represents a 21% increase compared to the previous calculation method. Consequently, more than 75% of local planning authorities (LPAs) will need to plan for more housing than they currently are. See more:
