SLR agrees that Policy CSP1 and CSP2 should be retained and updated to reflect new evidence and growth proposals outside the Growth Network. SLR would suggest that the policies should be updated to reflect the findings of the Greater Birmingham and Black Country Housing Market Area (HMA) Strategic Growth Study and any findings it may have that influence both housing needs within the HMA and the potential release of Green Belt land.

With regard to Policy CSP2, clear reference should be made to need for a comprehensive Green Belt Review, the release of sites for housing allocation and the safeguarding of sites for future needs beyond the plan period.
