Dear Ms Chapman,

My family owns and operates caravan parks in Pembrokeshire at Newgale, Dinas Cross and Newport. We provide 244 plots for privately owned static holiday caravans and 15 for tourers.

I write in response to the consultation on the Holiday Caravan Sites (Wales) Bill. Our trade association, BH&HPA has responded on behalf of all members and I endorse their evidence - on this link - to you.

I ask please that you ensure my park business is not placed at competitive disadvantage, jeopardising the direct and indirect employment we sustain.

Yours sincerely,

Ian Merrick

Director

Matthew Baker Caravans Ltd
