Respondent: Sea Space

The employment land release is required to turn the fortunes of Bexhill and Hastings. It would therefore be appropriate to specify in paragraph 5.29 the strategic significance of North Bexhill for both towns.

Concerning employment, sufficient flexibity is required within the guidance to allow for changing circumstances and practical experience. If the local economy is too weak to support private sector investment Sea Space is prepared to explore with Rother Council ways in which public intervention may be appropriate to secure its delivery.
