New homes are being built without any thought about the infrastructure.
I have made inquiries to see if there is a law about the ratio of housing to infrastructure, but it seems there is none, which is totally wrong in my eyes.
Schools are finding it difficult to provide places and doctors are working flat out to keep to targets set by the Government, and where can you find an NHS dentist these days?
It is scandalous these essential services are not looked at in conjunction with the building of new properties. There should be a law.
