Whilst I accept there is concern not to show discrimination against, and a duty to accommodate, gypsies and travellers, in the interests of parity, the fulfilment of supplying affordable homes in the community as a percentage of Medway's need should equal the fulfilment of supplying gypsy pitches as a percentage of traveller need.
The Cuxton Caravan Park, which you have put for intensification, continually suffers from furniture, rubbish and waste being dumped from the bottom of the site on to the Public Footpath, and traveller horses being released onto other people's land, requiring the police to sort the situation.
