Planning Policy Statement
Abstract
Aims to assist in the implementation of the Regional Development Strategy (RDS) by meeting the range of regional housing needs in the supply of new housing in the most sustainable way. This will be achieved through the promotion of housing in the urban area, promoting a mixed-use approach to development, and encouraging the development of balanced local communities. The PPS sets out a series of regional housing policies to be applied in these processes.
