The Council's Local Plan sets out which land can be used for house building and business development over the nextfew years. It was finally agreed by the Council, though not by the Liberal Democrat councillors, in 2019. It has to be "reviewed" by 2024.
Ed Davey's Leader's Speech to Spring Conference 2026
