We note that, as a result of this research, you are not seeking to meet your fully objectively assessed housing needs within Derbyshire Dales and have thus asked whether the Derby HMA authorities would be able to assist by providing sites to meet the shortfall. I would like to confirm at this point in time that none of the HMA authorities are in a position to accommodate any of Derbyshire Dales’ housing need. The HMA authorities do wish to express their surprise to receive this request, especially as this does not reflect the nature of preceding discussions regarding key strategic issues which have comprised our dialogue up to this point.
