The Planning Services Manager introduced the report and provided clarification on the five year land supply issue.  He explained that under delivery on the ground would continue to erode the five year land supply figure until such a time as development activity on the ground increased, with this in mind, in some cases and to encourage submission of Reserved Matters he was recommending that a limit of one year for the submission of Reserved Matters be agreed, rather than the three years previously agreed.
