Our response:

The Affordable Housing policy seeks to ensure that the benefits of the initial affordability will be retained for all subsequent occupiers and that it is of a size, scale and design compatible with an affordable dwelling and available to low or moderate income groups;

Any excessively large affordable dwellings outside the means of those seeking an affordable dwelling would not be considered appropriate, however the policy allows exceptional circumstances when clearly evidenced and justified.
