CBC Limited and the Landowners strongly support the need to plan for future job growth. However, the proposed number of jobs represents an annual growth rate which is significantly lower than the historic growth rates achieved consistently since 1991. The growth potential of the Life Sciences sector in particular should be reflected in the proposed approach.
There has never been a more important time to support and invest in centres of excellence for health and life sciences.
