Conclusion
We will soon by approaching two and a half years since this Government came to power. There has been a consultation and the launch of a taskforce, but construction —or even the final selection of new towns locations—are yet to take place. Therefore , alongside commitments to the urban extensions and urban regeneration projects , construction work must begin on at least one standalone new town within the lifetime of this parliament.
