Respondent: Mrs Maureen Wade

Representation Summary:

Most new builds do not allow the drying of washing outside on a clothes line, opting instead for a tumble dryer. How can this be more energy efficient? How many people are so offended by drying washing on a line that they would jeopardise sustainability, climate and carbon footprint for it?
How often with new builds do councils make sure all building materials are locally sourced, what checks are in place?
Houses should facilitate working from home by providing a separate office space not just broadband otherwise there is no life-work balance affecting mental health.
