  • Minerals and Waste Core Strategy
    Tees Valley Joint Minerals and Waste Development Plan Documents In association with Core Strategy DPD Adopted September 2011 27333-r22.indd 1 08/11/2010 14:55:36 i ii Foreword The Tees Valley Minerals and Waste Development Plan Documents (DPDs) - prepared jointly by the boroughs of Darlington, Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, Redcar and Cleveland and Stockton-on-Tees - bring together the planning issues which arise from these two subjects within the sub-region. Two DPDs have been prepared. This Minerals and Waste Core Strategy contains the long-term spatial vision and the strategic policies needed to achieve the key objectives for minerals and waste developments in the Tees Valley. The separate Policies and Sites DPD, which conforms with it, identifies specific sites for minerals and waste development and sets out policies which will be used to assess minerals and waste planning applications. The DPDs form part of the local development framework and development plan for each Borough. They cover all of the five Boroughs except for the part within Redcar and Cleveland that lies within the North York Moors National Park. (Minerals and waste policies for that area are included in the national park’s own local development framework.) The DPDs were prepared during a lengthy process of consultation. This allowed anyone with an interest in minerals and waste in the Tees Valley the opportunity to be involved. An Inspector appointed by the Secretary of State carried out an Examination into the DPDs in early 2011. He concluded that they had been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 and were sound.

  • A Free Zone Policy Fit for the UK Should Include
    Foreword Over the past three years there has been much discussion of the potential benefits of Free Trade Zones (FTZ) in the UK and how these might work. As the mayor of one of the regions with the most to gain from such a policy, and perhaps the greatest need for an economic boost, I commissioned this policy paper and the accompanying economic analysis to gain a realistic interpretation of the benefits, and an understanding of which incentives would work best. I also saw the need to dispel some of the myths surrounding FTZs. While it cannot be disguised that the excitement around FTZs was sparked by the UK’s decision to leave the European Union, this policy can yield significant economic benefits regardless of our ultimate Brexit deal. Likewise, regardless of our relationship with the EU, it is undeniable Ben Houchen that our future economic wellbeing is dependent on our ability to close Tees Valley Mayor the productivity gap, and to attract significant inward investment in sectors that can harness the potential of trade with fast-growing economies. What this paper proposes, contrary to some public commentary, is neither a silver bullet for the economic challenges of Brexit Britain, nor is it a regulatory free for all designed for emerging economies. It puts forward a fiscally credible means of sustaining and growing the UK’s manufacturing base, while delivering growth in some of the most deprived parts of the country. The paper proposes a pilot FTZ in the Tees Valley on our South Tees Development Corporation site, which could support the creation of thousands of jobs for local people.

  • Tees Valley Joint Minerals and Waste Development Plan Documents
    Draft Only i APPENDIX 2(i) Tees Valley Joint Minerals and Waste Development Plan Documents Core Strategy Publication Document August 2009 Draft Only ii Draft Only iii Foreword The preparation of Joint Minerals and Waste Development Plan Documents (DPDs) for Darlington, Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, Redcar and Cleveland and Stockton-on-Tees Boroughs presents an important opportunity to understand and deal with the cross boundary issues which arise from these two subjects in the Tees Valley. Two DPDs are being prepared. This Core Strategy contains the long-term spatial vision and the strategic policies needed to achieve the key objectives for minerals and waste developments in the Tees Valley. The Policies and Sites document will, in conformity with this Core Strategy, identify specific sites for future minerals and waste development and provide a limited range of policies which will be used to assess minerals and waste planning applications. The DPDs will form part of the Local Development Framework for each Borough, which together with the Regional Spatial Strategy for North East England will form the Development Plan for the area. The DPDs cover all of the land within the five Boroughs except for the part within Redcar & Cleveland Borough that also falls within the North York Moors National Park. The Publication Document represents the third stage of the preparation process. The first stage, in May 2007, was the production of an Issues and Options Report, where the issues affecting minerals and waste development in the Tees Valley were identified and consultees and the general public were asked to identify which of the options presented were the most appropriate for dealing with the issues.
