Motion text

That this House is concerned that the Government is pressing ahead with its plans to impose the extensive development of new housing in green land in South East England; note the continued opposition of local authorities and communities right across the region to those plans; praises Surrey County Council and other councils for the attempts they have made to resist the plans; further notes the fact that those authorities are now being forced to press ahead with plans that neither they nor their communities want; and urge the Government, even at this late stage, to review its hugely damaging targets for new development.
