Housing plan to be scrapped

It would appear that the new government is to carry out the Conservative election pledge to abolish the imposition of the previous targets for house building in South Worcs that threatened the character of some of our local villages.

Whilst population growth makes some building inevitable, hopefully this can now be done to reflect local needs. This now gives an opportunity for local communities to consider what development they require, which can be fed in to whatever new system is put in place.
