Richard recently joined his neighbouring MP from St Neots for an update meeting with Minister Matthew Pennycook on Tempsford and the wider New Towns programme.
Following the meeting, Richard Fuller MP said;
The Minister couldnโt share much while the evaluation is still underway, but he did outline the broad timetable for when decisions are expected and it was a good chance for us to pass on what we heard from the recent meeting with affected Parish and Local Authority Councillors.
We highlighted three key points:
- ๐๐จ๐๐๐ฅ ๐ฏ๐จ๐ข๐๐ โ communities must be involved in shaping any new town
- ๐๐ฅ๐๐ซ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ ๐จ๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐๐๐ซ๐ข๐๐ฌ ๐๐ง๐ ๐ ๐จ๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐ง๐๐ง๐๐ ๐จ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ง๐๐ฐ ๐ญ๐จ๐ฐ๐ง
- ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ญ๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ก๐๐ซ๐ข๐ญ๐๐ ๐ & ๐๐ง๐ฏ๐ข๐ซ๐จ๐ง๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ โ these must remain at the heart of any proposals
More updates will follow as soon as the Government's process continues.
