South West Regional Spatial Strategy
EDM number 616 in 2008-09, proposed by Annette Brooke on 28/01/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Regional planning and development.
That this House notes that around 35,000 responses from individuals and organisations have been submitted on the latest consultation on the South West Regional Spatial Strategy, and that this is the largest number ever received to such a consultation; further notes that the assumed growth rate of 3.2 per cent. on which the strategy is based now has no economic validity; calls on the Government to recognise that the protection of long-established Green Belt, flood risk areas and other valued green spaces from large-scale development is a priority, whilst recognising the need for small scale developments of social housing determined at local level; and further calls for the abandonment of the South West Regional Spatial Strategy.
This motion has been signed by a total of 30 MPs.
