Respondent: Sutton Parish Council

The Parish Council supports the concept that an adequate supply of all minerals should be made to assist in economic growth both locally and nationally and provide sufficient land to enable a steady and adequate supply of minerals over the plan period but no more.
The Parish Council supports SO5 in that mineral extraction minimises impacts on communities.
