Richard meets with the CPRE, The Countryside Charity

CPRE Mtg

This week, Richard met with the CPRE, The Countryside Charity, ahead of his Westminster Hall debate next week on "The Impact of housing targets on North East Bedfordshire".

Richard Fuller, Member of Parliament for North East Bedfordshire said:

The CPRE has a proud history of supporting our rural environment and can be a powerful voice ensuring new developments are sensitive to the needs of existing residents.

During our discussions there was strong agreement with me on a wide range of points including access to green space, closing loopholes in planning laws that "creepy" developers can exploit and for infrastructure such as GP surgeries and school places to be provided first.
