The sentence starting “The Councils will work to secure…” should be revised to more clearly state that the 20,000 new jobs are a minimum. The “at least” in this sentence applies to the 8,000 new homes, needs to apply to the 20,000 new jobs and does not apply to the new infrastructure.
Any ‘active management’ of the phasing of homes, jobs and infrastructure must not delay the delivery of jobs.
The reference to maximising job opportunities for local people is well-intentioned and supported in principle, but the mechanisms by which it is intended to achieve this need to be clear.
