Candidates Views; Myra Carus, GP - THC Ward 10




Dear (Christian name of APTSec)


The Highlands and Islands Green Party have a vision for a sustainable society in the Highlands and Islands.


Regarding local empowerment, the Greens in Council would strengthen grass roots democracy by increasing the resources, power and responsibilities of Community Councils, and devolve more responsibilities to them.

Community Councils should be able to initiate or block new developments in their area.

The Highland Wide 'local' Development Plan would be replaced with a Green alternative that supports the whole of the Highlands, with a focus on reducing dependence on road and air travel and developing strong, resilient local economies as far as possible.


(Reference: The Highlands and Islands Green Party Vision for a Sustainable Society in the Highlands and Islands)


Trust you are able to use some of this.


Myra Carus Green Party Candidate for the Local Council elections, Black Isle Ward.
