The need to maintain and increase employment in Rother to minimize travel is noted. The significant numbers of employees travelling outside of the district (section 11, para 11.4) is of particular concern.

The importance of retaining existing employment as highlighted in paragraph 5.17 is welcomed. The location of the brickworks meets a number of the planned objectives to provide employment in close proximity to the built areas to promote alternative travel other than by car.
