Respondent: Lark Row Developments Ltd.
Representation Summary:
Re Box 26: The analysis and preferred strategy give inadequate consideration to the increasing importance of working at home. Provided the activities are suitable to the premises and environment, this is a route to increasing employment, including higher value-added employment, reducing the need to commute, and sustaining economic activity and support for local services, especially in rural areas.
Add: Aspects of home working need to be further investigated such as building size and IT infrastructure.
