Representation Summary:

Vision for the future (Box 1, pp12).

It is my view that the vision for Rother - in respect of its economic development aspirations - could be more distinctive, and possibly allude to the 'step-change' in economic growth outlined in paragraph 5.14. I would like a general statement of strategic intent - i.e. that Rother DC will (in 2026) be recognised for having taken its business infrastructure 'up the value chain' by bringing jobs/workforce that it current exports back to the District by providing high-quality and sustainable jobs.
