GOSH is campaigning for sustainable open-space management, led by the community for the community in partnership with the council, to enable food growing and encourage biodiversity in the city of Hull. We firmly believe climate change and sustainability must be the foremost consideration in Planning decisions and we therefore support the Charter.

Local communities are being denied their democratic right to partake in decisions that affect their immediate environment. RAFF (Residents Action On Fylde Fracking) has always encouraged its members to take action and get involved in local matters. The new planning laws do not make provision for this.
There also seems to be no mention of the fact that an increase of effective integration of climate change and ecological matters into projects at the earliest appropriate stage enables better outcomes, reduced risk and cost.

We represent diverse community of local supporters. Such local residents have a stake in the way their neighbourhoods look and function, and a right to to respond to concerns, not to mention substantial expertise in the local geography. Planning for future developments and transport infrastructure must continue to be scrutinised democratically through local councils and public consultation.

We believe it is important for planning decisions to be properly scrutinised in an open and transparent manner. If these decisions are left to the organisations which have a clear vested financial interest, they will be biased and will not take proper account of environmental, ecological and conservation factors.

The Planning system MUST listen to the local community whom have a real vested interest in the areas where they live.
It’s called Community and that is the strength that binds people together.
Covid has shown how important our Green Spaces and Greenbelt are to communities.
Handing over power to corrupt Council Officials MPs and developers is a joke.

I strongly believe that, if implemented, the proposals in the Government’s Planning White Paper, 2020 will lead to:
– Even more poor quality housing – especially for low income people.
– Little assurance of the provision of affordable housing.
– Even less democracy in the planning system than there is already.
– An accelerating erosion of green spaces, green belts and open countryside.
Property developers already have far too much power over the fate of open space in this country as it is. Under the existing system, local communities already face an uphill struggle when objecting to inappropriate developments. To propose to hand developers even more power is an outrage!
