Representation Summary:

The Council's online evidence base on housing and demographics currently consists primarily of the SHMA (July 2014), Great Essex Demographic Forecasts (Phase 6 September 2014) and the Heart of Essex Housing Growth Scenarios (June 2012). Essential that the plan seeks to meet full objectively assessed needs in terms of homes and jobs to provide sustainable future development.
