In responding to Policy 7.1 we refer back to our comments in respect of Policy 1. In summary we consider there to be serious flaws arising from:
i. the continued overreliance on East Norwich given past under-delivery;
ii. the failure to distribute new growth within other parts of the GNLP area to more closely align with local housing needs where they arise and thus avoid market saturation in areas of more marginal viability;
iii. misalignment between the spatial strategy and the economic priorities of the Plan related to the Tech Corridor; and
iv. the assumptions over the scale of housing delivery arising from a key regeneration site in the centre of Norwich (Carrow Road) which is subject to considerable and acknowledged uncertainty above).
