Taking into account annual build rates over the last three years 90% of new build would need to be affordable.<br />

However, this assessment is misleading since a considerable proportion of land available for development already<br />

has planning permission so the application of a higher affordable housing contribution is not possible on most<br />

sites. The following analysis shows the position with local plan targets compared with other <strong>Council</strong>s in 2003.<br />

The Housing Needs Assessment also undertook a balancing housing markets assessment to examine the likely<br />

affects on sectors of the housing market. This supported that there would be a shortfall in affordable housing but<br />
