identified in the Kingston Local Housing Needs Assessment 2024 and no evidence has been submitted to
demonstrate this would be unviable or unsuitable, contrary to Policy H10 of the London Plan 2021 and
Policy DM13 of the Kingston Core Strategy 2012.
2

terms having undersized Gross Internal Areas and private external space, contrary to Policy D6 of the
