Canary Wharf being excluded from planning brief

17th April 2015

Campaigners have set up a planning forum in east London as part of the Government’s Localism Act because they argue Tower Hamlets Council is excluding Canary Wharf from its brief. The forum’s chairman Richard Harwood commented: “This area is apparently ‘too important’ to allow us to get involved and the council claims there aren’t many people living here anyway. I live slap bang in the middle of the area along with thousands of others, so we beg to differ!”
