Cooperation between the local authorities which form the South Staffordshire Functional Economic Market Area (FEMA) is essential to ensuring an appropriate supply of land to address future needs. An agreed Duty to Cooperate Statement of Common Ground is required for the South Staffordshire FEMA. This should confirm the requirements of the FEMA local authorities and Sandwell, following the termination of the joint Black Country Plan preparation. Without a full understanding of the implications of this on the requirements of the FEMA authorities and wider West Midlands, the employment land requirements for SSDC cannot be confirmed.
