"My comments refer to para 16.9
which discusses Farm Diversification schemes within the Green Belt.
Whilst I commend the Council for identifying the urgent need to support the
Rural Economy I consider that this paragraph needs further
expansion and clarification. It only refers to buildings and there are
many other important types of Farm Diversification that should be
considered. Reasonable extensions to existing schemes also need to be
included as these can be crucial to their continued viabilty.
Moreover, to ensure that the Rural Economy is fully supported I also
endorse the comments of the Federation of Small Businesses in their
latest report entitled " The Missing links - Revitalising our Rural
Economy",which states - "Local authorities should provide tailored guidance
on appropriate types of farm diversification suitable for their localities
and what farmers need to do, to give them the best chance of submitting a
successful planning application"."
