Dear Member

This is to update you about the course of the Inquiry held over the past two days - but which will have to be
re-convened in order for the Appellant's case to be presented to the Inspector (Bexley's presentation was not
concluded until late on the second day). It is anticipated that another two days will be needed to complete
the Inquiry, date/s yet to be fixed (possibly around 9 March or 20 April).

Meanwhile, I take this opportunity to thank everyone who responded to our Chairman's appeal for support
(around 50 members emailed in, plus the Coldblow Residents Association); those who kindly sent their good
wishes to me beforehand and to the members, and members of our committee, who attended the Inquiry to
further demonstrate to the Inspector by their presence the strength of local feeling about this issue. A special
thank you, too, to Sylvia Malt of the The Bexley Civic Society and Cllr. Don Massey, both of whom
attended in order to address the Inspector in our support. And a very special thank you to our MP, James
Brokenshire, who wrote to the Planning Inspectorate on 9 January to re-affirm his support of local people in
their opposition to the Little Acre application.

A copy of Mr Brokenshire's letter, together with a copy of my Address to the Inspector, is attached.

I will continue to keep you informed.

Jean Gammons

Secretary of the North Cray Residents Associatio
