In this video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RfXgju4lKDo, Richard gives an update on some of the key issues he has been working on since Parliament returned.

Richard Fuller MP said:

During the general election, I promised to be your strong, local voice on issues affecting North Bedfordshire so since the election I have held meetings relating to the large solar farm proposal in North Bedfordshire given residents' concerns as a result of the immediate approval of other large-scale solar farms across the country; VAT on private school fees, which will have a significant impact locally as we have a high concentration of private schools and no places in state secondary schools; concerns over a recent think-tank report which suggested a new town of 250,0000 houses could be built at Tempsford made viable by East West Rail; delays step-free access at Biggleswade Railway station; the management of water resources in North Bedfordshire and the recent CQC report into maternity services at Bedford Hospital.

A summary can be watched here.
