Tameside Strategic Housing and Economic Land Availability Assessment

Paragraph 72 of the December 2024 National Planning Policy Framework (https://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ukgwa/20231228093504/https:/www.gov.uk/government/publications/national-planning-policy-framework--2) (NPPF) states that strategic policy-making authorities should have a clear understanding of the land available within their area through the preparation of a strategic housing land availability assessment. In addition, Paragraph 001 of the July 2019 Planning Practice Guidance (https://gbr01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.gov.uk%2Fguidance%2Fhousing-and-economic-land-availability-assessment&data=05%7C02%7Cwebmaster%40tameside.gov.uk%7C07e937ababbf463ac61108dd41dfda23%7C83726a5b1f264242967e81d4c4b8a13b%7C0%7C0%7C638739152371909394%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=x9SAqp%2FJ48Y2acLhzpQBQ7JnU41VV2TrfDrP56580Jk%3D&reserved=0)

(PPG) advises that plan-making authorities may carry out land availability assessments for housing and economic development as part of the same exercise, in order that sites maybe identified for the uses(s) which is most appropriate. Tameside Council has, therefore, prepared a combined Strategic Housing and Economic Land Availability Assessment (SHELAA) in line with the above policy and guidance. It is important to clarify that identification of land in this assessment does not imply that either planning permission will be granted or that a site will be allocated in the local plan. Development yields on non-permitted sites within the assessment are arrived at through applying a high-level policy appraisal. All land and future development proposals remain subject to the plan making and development management democratic processes of the Council. The assessment also does not preclude land from being developed for uses other than that identified in this assessment. Nor does it preclude the possibility of development being granted on discounted or other sites that have not been included in this assessment.

Housing Need Assessment

The Housing Need Assessment (HNA) 2020 provides a strong evidence base to help shape future planning and housing policy and development in Tameside. It contains a review of existing (secondary) data; an analysis of the findings of a household survey; interviews with key stakeholders; an assessment of housing need and affordable housing requirements; and an analysis of the housing needs of specific groups of people.
