And Advantage West Midlands is what exactly ? Was there an election I missed ?
What type of properties are we going to see in the near future - housing or business developments? If either when do you plan to start them?
Seriously, you’ve never heard of Advantage West Midlands??
Where have you been for the last few years?
They’re the regional development agency for the West Mids.
