The Plan proposes that the present 19% of Magna Park workforce living within Harborough postcodes should be increased to 25%, but gives no indication of supporting evidence of need or means of achieving this. It would require about 5000 workers instead of present 1800 to fulfil this objective and thus is not feasible, espeoially when over 50% of local residents currently fill managerial, professional and associated support roles, of which are estimated to comprise only 24% of current site jobs, at best.
