Summary

Ban the “15 minute cities” initiative which is happening in places such as Oxford immediately and stop all councils immediately from implementing such schemes for which there is no national mandate. We believe the initiative is a restriction on individual freedom of movement & restricts people’s ability to choose where they live, work or travel, contravening both the Human Rights Act & ECHR (primarily through Article 2 of Protocol #4) which guarantees the right to move freely & choose their residence in the territory they live in, ensuring that individuals can live, work & travel domestically without arbitrary restriction. In our view there are no valid or proven reasons for this initiative to go ahead.
