I would hope the can provide uptodate mapping and test links to the LPAs websites - as the changes are occuring. At Basildon, to assist in the process of distinguishing whether the saved policies are being used or not and whether the Portal inks to the right document, we assembled our saved policies into a separate document, rather than just providing an addendum of those policies which are saved in our Local Plan, With regards to Pendleton, CLG have published what Housing and Planning Delivery Grant (HPDG) will now be based on: http://www.communities.gov.uk/publications/housing/allocationsummaryresponses ...and their is now less focus on Pendleton style assessments to rank online websites. In fact I am not sure whether the scoring survey is still carried out. The planning element of HPDG seems to be based on: a) demonstrating sufficient land for housing (40%); b) delivery of Core Strategies and DPDs (50%), c) joint-working (4%) and d) publication of SHMA (4%)
