Do we need to allow for flexible delivery capacity over the short to medium term to cater for unforeseen changes in demand levels due to changes in population levels or composition?
Do we need to allow for flexible delivery capacity over the medium term due to population wave effects?
Should we cross-check projected service-area population and service demand against other sources of data?
Do we need to allow for possible changes in the mix of services demanded due to differences in the characteristics of those migrating in and out of the service area?
