MK Lib Dems have welcomed the report of the Independent Inspectors Panel on the South East Plan which rejects a proposal by Conservative run Bucks County and Aylesbury Vale Councils that Milton Keynes should be expanded east of the M1 into our rural villages.
“The Lib Dems are delighted that the Independent Panel which looked at the South East of England Plan sees no need to build houses to the East of the motorway” said Councillor Sam Potts. “We are also relieved that the Panel doesn’t believe there is a case for Milton Keynes to be asked to build even more homes, although the Government asked that more homes should be considered in the South East.”
The Government now have to decide whether to accept the Inspectors recommendation.
