Respondent: Mr Leslie Brown
Representation Summary:
Unless the sites are close to the town centres, the development may be neutral in respect of retail patterns. With home deliveries by the major retailers etc, plus student accommodation only the increase in white vans may occur. A retail impact assessment is required to address what is happening countrywide. The Governments Parliamentary research papers, issued daily, may be a starting point.
