This does not address 100% Affordable Housing Schemes, this paragraph should include the word normally.
There is no definition of a cluster, suggest "all those affordable units having access from the same position (as in apartments) or frontage i.e. the same street.
Layout and distribution of unit types and typologies should also be taken into account.

Paragraphs 5.5 and 5.6 contradict each other, especially on larger developments and larger blocks of flats. Occupation of single tenures is preferable and more viable.

Paragraphs 5.5 and 5.6 contradict each other.
Restrictions of numbers of apartments from a common stairwell is artificially restrictive and restricts density. Requiring blocks to have more than one stair/lift core will add significantly to building costs.
Paragraph should be deleted or be more flexible, for example:
"In Flatted schemes, no more than 20 affordable dwellings should normally have access from a common stairwell or lift. If the number of affordable dwellings is proposed to exceed 20 units, this should be justified by virtue of the scheme layout, density, detailed design and mix of units and tenures proposed within the parcel/phase or site"
