§ Mr. BluntTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions what is his estimate of the number of new houses that can be accommodated on brownfield sites in Surrey. [116154]
§ Ms Beverley HughesI have made no estimate. I have asked the South East planning authorities—SERPLAN—to consider the distribution of additional housing within the region, taking full account of national planning policies which make development of brownfields the first priority.
