Planning And Development In The South West Region

EDM number 1853 in 2008-09, proposed by Martin Horwood on 13/07/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Leisure and Regional planning and development.

That this House endorses the Save Our Green Spaces campaign manifesto; notes the recommendation from the Environmental Audit Committee that the Government suspend the implementation of its regional spatial strategies until it has carried out and published an environmental appraisal of its house-building targets; further notes the High Court judgement on 20 May 2009 that the previously issued Regional Spatial Strategy for the East of England has failed to meet certain requirements of the Strategic Environmental Assessment Directive; and therefore calls on the Government to commit to sequential development to protect the countryside of the South West of England and to reward local authorities for regenerating urban areas, to ensure that the priority for new housing is affordable homes and that these are fully funded, to reduce the overall number of new houses allocated, meet local needs and be provided in tandem with community and social facilities.

This motion has been signed by a total of 40 MPs.
