    Five Year Housing Land Supply As of 31 March 2019

    Five Year Housing Land Supply as of 31st March 2019 1.0 Housing Requirement 1.1 Due to the under delivery of houses in Allerdale (for the areas outside the Lake District National Park Authority) (see Table 1), the Council considers it prudent that a 5% buffer is applied to the annual housing target, consistent with the Housing Delivery Test. The shortfall of dwellings will be addressed in the short term and therefore this buffer has been added to the five year land supply target in full, as per the Sedgefield method. Monitoring Period Net completions Local Plan Target Cumulative shortfall 2011/2012 201 304 -103 2012/2013 189 304 -218 2013/2014 196 304 -326 2014/2015 300 304 -330 2015/2016 385 304 -249 2016/2017 250 304 -303 2017/2018 480 304 -127 2018/2019 337 304 -94 Total 2,338 2,432 -94 Table 1: Net housing completions since 1st April 2011 1.2 Therefore the annual housing requirement for the next 5 years is 339 dwellings per annum (see Table 2).

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT This is a study of the influence of received pronunciation on a speaker from Workington, Cumberland, His speech is described as occtipying a position between received pronunciation and the more conservative Workington speech norm. In this regard he is contrasted with a second Workington man, of identical background, and their status as typical Workington speakex^s is established by means of a questionnaire. Attention is limited to diffex'ing phonetic realisations of the same vowel phonemes, noted impressionistically and supported by accompanying acoustic analysis. Exemplification is provided by a tape-recording of the same passage spoken by the two informants with a transcription of the passage showing linguistic innovation.
