Letter: Our thanks to Eric Pickles for listening to LDF concerns
On Thursday, April 25, I along with other local residents and protest group leaders met with Eric Pickles, Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, to put forward our objections to the Local Development Framework (LDF) which has been submitted to him for approval by Kirklees Council.
Mr Pickles listened to our objections carefully and with interest and hopefully he took on board some of our concerns, I would just like to take this opportunity to thank Mr Pickles for taking the time to meet with us, and also thank Mark Eastwood and our MP Simon Reevell and his office for organising the meeting.
It’s not very often that one is able to meet a government minister face to face to express your opinions.
