Representation Summary:

The housing contribution to the Black Country and GBHMA is out-of-date and these should be reassessed. South Staffordshire has already had 300 hectares of Green Belt removed in the Strategic Rail Freight Interchange (SRFI) at Gailey. This should create surplus employment land in the Black Country which can be reallocated for housing needs, particularly given the substantial central government assistance the Black Country receives in terms of brownfield funding.
