Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what assessment he has made of the potential implications for his policies on the Oxford Cambridge Arc of the analysis of housing need in that area in the National Infrastructure Commission's report entitled, Partnering for Prosperity, published in November 2017.
The National Infrastructure Commission’s report highlighted the significant potential of the Oxford-Cambridge Arc area, and recommended steps to meet this potential. The report was advisory and the Government issued a detailed response to its recommendations in October 2018 and more detail on how we will work with local partners in March 2019.
