Natural resources in Brecon and Radnorshire – particularly our carbon rich peatland soil – are hugely important. I want to see ambitious alternative energy solutions but over-populating the landscape with windfarms risks blighting iconic scenery that contribute directly to the local economy. Above all, I want local people to be able to decide what is right for their community. While the natural environment is paramount, planning decisions in Brecon and Radnor must take economic growth seriously.
