Representation Summary:

Affordable housing based on current salaries is normally not provided in new developments. Councils bow down to profiteering housing developers and must insist that appropriate numbers of affordable housing is developed at the same time as housing developed for profit. It doesn't cost very much to build a house!!

Change suggested by respondent:

Build affordable housing at the same time and in % proportion to other housing.
