2. In the South West, South East and East there have been successful legal challenges. Are you planning such an action to the West Midlands strategy? Please keep me informed when you decide on this.

4. In the earlier consultation in 2008 we were told only 2,700 houses were to be built on greenfield sites. Why has this suddenly erupted into 5,000? Who made this decision?

12. Why have you not allocated more housing to villages?

13. Why have you not spread the housing around the District? Housing development should be proportional across the District and not to have any impact on any particular area. Why have you put all this housing in Warwick and not around Leamington or Kenilworth or along the A46 corridor where there is employment and infrastructure in nearby Coventry?

14. Why have you ignored the Government's Cave Report which stated that 4,000 houses should not be built in one area?

15. Why have you not challenged the projected growth rate figure of 40,000? Why have you simply accepted this? Have you examined the population figures and assessed the 40,000 growth? Did you not argue that Warwick has had its fair share of housing and there has been an unusually large amount of major development over the last few years, i.e. Hatton, Pottertons, Chase Meadow, Warwick Gates, apart from in-filling in many brown field sites? Are the West Midlands Regional Office aware of this? Warwick's percentage of housing development is far higher than that in Leamington and Kenilworth.

16. How have you identified who wants these houses? Aren't you just encouraging people to migrate from other areas into Warwick? Isn't the real reason for city migration and not natural population growth? Why are you ignoring GOWN's advice to reduce migration? Are you challenging these figures?
18. Why, when Kenilworth have a new rail station planned, no traffic congestion and none of the problems that Warwick has and can support the infrastructure, are they not allocated some of the housing development?

19. Why is no new housing allocated for Cllr. Doody's ward of Radford Semele?

24. Are you going to carry out a full and proper appraisal of Warwick District's Housing and Employment Land Requirements, for the period up to 2026?
