Rural Businesses in the West Midlands are Crucial for the Economy Says CLA

Rural Businesses in the West Midlands are Crucial for the Economy Says CLA

The CLA is calling on the Government to accept the recommendations in the Commission for Rural Communities (CRC) Report.

 The rural economy experts put the full weight of their support behind the findings and suggestions of the CRC Report.

 CLA West Midlands director, Caroline Bedell said: "At a time when the economy is facing a sharp downturn, the CRC's report highlights the verve of the rural economy and the extent to which rural business can help recovery.

 "The CLA has said all along that rural businesses in the West Midlands are innovators. Failing to take heed of the CRC's proposals would be a damning indictment of the Government, particularly as it was the Prime Minister who requested the report in the first place.

"I believe that all of us in the region's countryside have a unique opportunity to grasp the full potential that rural business can provide. Not doing so would be failing the present generation and generations to come."
