Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by Justin Tomlinson (Conservative). It was answered on Monday, 17 September 2012 on behalf of the Department for Communities and Local Government.
Outdoor Play Facilities
- Question
-
Children’s outdoor play facilities are indeed essential, as is the provision of usable open space for Jumpers for Goalposts —all too often compromised by the last Government’s high-density housing rules. What measures is the Minister taking to ensure adequate provision in new developments?
- Answer
-
The national planning policy framework provides very robust protection for playing fields. We have also introduced the new designation for green spaces. Both those measures will, I think, help my hon. Friend.
