Option D would restrict new student accommodation to specified locations only, resulting in a loss of flexibility for the evolution of the CFNE area. There is no need to impose such a restriction which could have a detrimental impact upon both the provision of student accommodation to meet market demand and upon sites which are safeguarded for student development, when alternative uses may be more appropriate. A new policy as suggested under Option C offers a more flexible approach which will result in student accommodation being developed in suitable locations
