Partially satisfied

As a public user, I need to find applications by local area so that I can understand planning activity affecting places where I live, work or that I care about.

Justification

Justification just-0077

The `address-text`, `postcode`, `uprns`, `usrns` and `name` fields support finding applications using addresses, postcodes, properties, streets and familiar place names. This only partially meets the need because these identifiers do not define every local area that a public user may recognise or care about, such as a neighbourhood, ward or area within a chosen distance. The specification also provides the data needed for discovery rather than the search capability itself.
