This document has been prepared in response to the discussion at the Hearing sessions for Matters 5 and 6. It describes the methodology that the Council will apply to re-appraise housing sites in the SHELAA in light of the Inspector’s request to increase housing supply.

Comments are invited on this document (MS-12). The deadline is 5pm on Friday 13 March 2026. Responses should be no longer than two sides of A4 paper and should be sent to policyconsultation@midsussex.gov.uk. 

23 February 2026

18 February 2026 

The Hearing Statements in response to the Inspector's Matters 1 to 6 have been published and can be viewed under the Hearing Statements section below. The Council has also published the Inspector's comments (IDJB-06) on the Council's response (MS-08) to the Development Management Policies.

12th February 2026 

The Council has published its Infrastructure Delivery Plan (December 2025) and 1 April 2025 Housing Trajectory. These can be found in the Evidence Library.

4th February 2026 - Update from the Inspector

Some representors have asked whether they can participate in the discussion on Matter 6, scheduled for 8 March, to make comments about sites that have not been included in the plan. It is important to recognise that the Inspector is examining the soundness of the plan itself and its site allocations, not housing sites that have been omitted from it. The Matter 6 session is necessary to understand and assess the soundness of the Council’s site selection process, but this will be at a high level. There are several omission sites and it would be an inefficient use of examination time to hear detailed representations about their merits and demerits either from objectors or from site promoters. The Inspector will therefore not accept or consider such representations.

2nd February 2026

The Council has published its response to the Inspector's comments on Development Management Policies (IDJB-02). This has been added to the examination library.

26th January 2026

The Inspector has also provided the Council with comments and proposed modifications on Development Management policies and Matters and Issues for Examination.

The documents have been added to the Inspector's Documents section below and the Council will respond in due course.
