Thanet is a deprived area. Industry is what is required and the infrastructure is in place to support this. Housing, is required, but there is actually better places between Herne Bay and Manston, for this to be done. With Manston going back to being an airfield, all the support industries will follow, bringing more much needed employment to the area. If a housing estate is built, additional schools, doctors, police,fire,ambulance service and hospital space is going to be required. These areas are already at breaking point.Where is the plan for this and how is it to be funded? Also where is the industry to support people buying property in this area, unless they are all expected to commute, in which case the roads and infrastructure is not in place.
