GLA in Olympic planning furore

Article Abstract:

Greater London Authority (GLA) handling London's 2012 Olympic Games are misusing the planning and Compulsory Purchase Order (CPO) systems and have been accused with snapping lands which could freeze regeneration and reduce land values. Policies like Leaside Area Action Plan (AAP) are being questioned because they are likely to hamper development in the areas around the Games.

Article Abstract:
