It would be more relevant to show the overview for the East Midlands region mineral resources and industry as a whole , including showing exact figures for input and export of materials and to show how the individual county councils work together to serve needs of the whole region.A positive example is Dorset LAA which includes import and export figures.
We are concerned about the emphasis on the value of wetlands in bio-diversity since the Trent Valley is already dominated by former sand and gravel extraction areas that are now areas of still water
