===The Debate===
It was a lively debate about important planning issues: lack of social housing, loss of industrial land, negative impact of the Old Kent Road Area Action Plan on the existing community, need for a significant change for the better in community engagement on planning, too close relationship between developers and the Council, failure to examine the impact of the new plans on vulnerable communities, inadequate provision of green spaces and provision for biodiversity, and need for a Local List for heritage buildings. If you speak to any candidates, you could raise these issues with them.

===Community Exhibition===
The Community Exhibition took place at 2-3pm before the Hustings. Several community groups from across the borough who are active on planning and regeneration matters presented a display of the current issues in their neighbourhood. Taken together these exhibits gave a kaleidoscope of the impact of the Council’s planning and regeneration policies, and how communities are responding.
