Take the decision out of Barnet's hands!

To the Secretary of State

We the undersigned urge the Government to 'call-in' the Brent Cross Cricklewood planning application for independent and impartial assessment. It is not in the public interest for Barnet Council to determine the application for the following reasons:

*We do not believe that Barnet Council has fully considered the proposals that in many instances do not contain sufficient detail for the Council to make an informed decision.

*There are elements of the plan that have significant impacts outside the Borough of Barnet, in particular on the road and rail network and on local shopping.

*The proposal includes a new waste site off Edgware Road. This is premature as the site has not been included in the North London Waste Plan, which itself is not yet an adopted policy.
