REPORT

This  Minister  wishes  to  ensure  that  the  new  affordable  housing  mechanism  is developed following a fully consultative process, as set out in his amendment 54.

As part of this process, the Minister considers that it is appropriate that the States is involved  and,  on  this  basis,  the  Minister  is  minded  to  bring  the  proposed supplementary planning guidance for the new affordable housing policy to the States for endorsement prior to adoption and publication.

The result of this further amendment would alter the wording of the new proposal 18, as follows:

"Proposal 18: Affordable Housing

The Minister for Planning and Environment will carry out consultation, adopt and publish supplementary planning guidance on the operation of Policy (H3): affordable housing. This will provide detail on the calculation of on-site and commuted  sum  values  for  any  given  housing  development,  together  with practical information on the application of the policy, the use of planning obligation agreements, and policy procedure.

Policy H3 will not be applied until such a time that this guidance has been approved  and  published  by  the  Minister  for  Planning  and  Environment, following consultation with relevant stakeholders and the endorsement of the States."

Financial and manpower implications

There  are  no  additional  financial  or  manpower  implications  arising  from  this amendment.
