Mary Portas high street plans get go ahead
The government has announced it has accepted "virtually all" 28 recommendations from Mary Portas in its bid to rejuvenate UK High Streets.
These will include creating dedicated "town teams" to manage High Streets and making parking more affordable.
It has also unveiled additional measures, including funding schemes and cutting back on red tape.
Last year, the government asked Ms Portas to compile a report on how best to revive the High Street.
