520			_aThe government's target for high-housing densities - set between 30 and 50 dwellings per hectare - has been criticised for being dangerously high. The targets are to be increased to more than 70 dwellings per hectare in the city centres, 40 to 75 dwellings per hectare in urban areas and 35 to 55 dwellings per hectare in suburban areas. Planning advisors, together with the Commission for Architecture and the Built Environment, argue that although high density development is desirable, local authorities, rather than the government should have the final say in such matters. It is also claimed that a centrally imposed diktat will encourage overcrowding and badly designed developments, leading to poor living conditions.
