Gypsy & Traveller, DPD

Hi

We are currently considering the potential of bringing forward a separate DPD for Gypsy & Traveller sites. However, orginally it was our intention that the level of need would also be detemrined through this document. However, on studying the PAS website Q&A it states that need should be determinmed through their main strategic policies plan with several examination suspended due to an absence of policy. I wondered if anyone had any experience on this or advice on this?

Thanks

Henry

Hi Henry

I am not sure how you could establish the need for gypsies and travellers through a specific g and t DPD!

We have produced a Housing and Development Needs Assessment, as background evidence for our LP, which identifies the OAHN for the Local Plan period. The OAHN includes all housing need (including that of g & ts), other than for the institutional population.

In addition to the HEDNA, we have commissioned additional work to look in more detail at the needs of the g and t population and to try and determine whether they are travelling or not.

Not sure if that helps!
