Latest on Bill

MP Greg Mulholland (Leeds North West) introduced the Sale of Green Belt Land Bill which aimed to outlaw land banking, the practice of buying up green belt and and selling it on at a profit. Sadly it looks like the Bill has just been dropped for the moment due to other Parliamentary pressures.

However the subdivision and sale of small plots of agricultural land like in the Ruscombe Valley remains a matter of widespread public concern. There also appears to be cross-party support for trying to end land banking. The Ruscombe Valley Action Group will be continuing to ensure this issue doesn't get forgotten.
