WEST Worcestershire MP Sir Michael Spicer says not enough land has been set aside for business at North Site.

Sir Michael said the proposed 3.5 hectares of business land was less than the seven hectares originally suggested.

He said: "It was originally intended that successful firms unable to expand on the science park should have the capacity to do so at North Site. I have written to the chief executive of the council, Chris Bocock, to ask for his assurance that this remains the policy.

"It would certainly be a shame if companies which have been helped to set up on the science park and wish to develop in Malvern were unable to do so through lack of space."
