Received: 29/01/2009

Respondent: Park Holidays UK

Agent: Rural Solutions

Representation Summary:

Tourism is recognised in the South East Plan as a significant element of the local economy, particularly in the coastal resorts and along the south coast as a whole, as well as in rural areas. It is acknowledged as a significant part of Rother's economy.

The SE Plan calls for a comprehensive, long term vision for the role of tourism and related activities in order to shape investment and decisions (SE Plan D10 1.5)

As such tourism as a distinct element of the economy of the area should feature within the overall spatial strategy.
