Under paragraph 62 of the consultation draft National Planning Policy Framework, it is proposed that it is a matter for each local authority to determine the type of homes required for different groups in the community, including travellers who do not fall under the definition in Annex 1 of the Planning Policy for Traveller Sites. We welcome views on this issue in response to the consultation paper.
