Evidence Base
As a starting point the Local Development Framework must have a robust, up-to-date and credible evidence base. This will form a key part of ensuring the 'soundness' of the LDF when it is examined by an independent inspector.
A number of background studies have been undertaken which support and provide an evidence base for the Elmbridge Local Development Framework. These can be viewed below:
