Representation Summary:

The aim of this discussion document is to provide supporting information that will empower the West Midlands Combined Authority’s (WMCA) to change attitudes, improve services and to create innovative industrial solutions that will improve social standards and help to revitalise the UK’s environment. Having said that, it is important to note that implementation of the suggestions detailed in this document can be greatly improved, and become far more efficient, through the introduction of supporting national policies and strategies.

Referring back to my opening remarks, it is worth highlighting how the application of common sense and timely policies and strategies can result in far reaching social benefits. Although the topic being discussed could be interpreted as me “going slightly off at a tangent, it is worth pointing out that it has social, transport and industry relevance.
