The assessment uses existing evidence and an audit of settlement services and facilities in order to determine the capacity of settlements to accommodate sustainable development and the likely role of each settlement within the district. 1.2 It will also provide the background to allocating sites should this be required in a subsequent allocation development plan document or through Neighbourhood Development Plans. Methodology Overview 1.3 This study firstly sets out the national and regional policy context in section two, it then considers the existing evidence in section 3 and section 4 identifies the methodology used to carry out the audit of facilities and services. The results of the audit are identified in a matrix in appendix A. It is acknowledged that the services and facilities in settlements may change over time, the audit is intended to be regularly updated to inform further policy documents including Neighbourhood Plans. It is not anticipated that there will be such significant change at any of the further audits to requiree th hierarchy to change during the plan period (other than where already identified in the plan, such as the new train station at Winslow).
