Redrow development of Thingwall Hall site - public inquiry

On Friday July 4th I gave evidence to the public inquiry hearing Redrow's appeal against Knowsley Council's refusal of planning permission for a massive housing development. I spoke against Redrow's appeal both as a local resident and on behalf of the 2 local Labour MPs, Jane Kennedy and Eddie O'Hara.

There is unanimous local opposition to this scheme which has been around in one form or another for 13 years now. The L14 Action Group made the case against very convincingly on a range of grounds including the transport and road safety effects, the loss of green space and the impact on crime.

The inquiry concludes on 9th July.

Promoted by Ray Collins, General Secretary, the Labour Party,on behalf of the Labour Party, both at 39 Victoria Street, London, SW1H 0HA.
