Affordable Housing, Deer Farming, Mussels

A letter signed by the ten people who chair England's National Park Authorities is urging ministers to think again about changing the rules on affordable housing. At the moment, local councils can insist property developers include a quota of affordable homes in any plans for a housing development. The government is now considering introducing a threshold, which would mean developments of fewer than ten houses would be exempt from this requirement. The chairman of National Parks England tells Anna Hill why he doesn't think that's a good idea.

A local delicacy in Norfolk is now off the menu and may be endangered for the future, after the harvest failed. Morston Mussels have been seeded and grown along the shoreline by local fishermen for generations, but silting up of the Morston coastline has meant the young stock is unable to grow. Anna Hill's been talking to local fishermen to try and find out why.

British deer farmers have been picking up tips from a New Zealander who's running a deer farm in Scotland. Sales of venison are increasing in the UK, which is fuelling a renewed interest in deer farming.
