He said he was not aware of any development

He said he was not aware of any development in a similar size town around the country that was proposing 50,000 square metres of retail.His judgment was that this was not required to create the critical mass needed to ensure a development's success. He did not think that a smaller scheme had been tested.He agreed that the major non food retailers would not come to a development on their own, although he felt food store operators would go anywhere on their own'. He did not think Knowsley Council had been proactive enough to bring a major food store to Kirkby.He said the problem here was that there had been several schemes that had not been taken forward. Mr Clarkson said this was a matter of opinion.There were a number of  Fifa 16 Coins questions about how Skelmersdale would improve its retail offer.

Mr Nutter said food shopping in the town was dominated by Asda, which was overtrading and retaining 71 per cent of available expenditure. He said it was considered that the introduction of another operator would create more choice and push this retention to 90 per cent.Mr Clarkson pointed out that this was an even more ambitious claw back' of expenditure than was expected tin Kirkby. Mr Nutter agreed that the Skelmersdale plan was about regenerating the town centre and increasing the non food offer.

But he said it would be impossible for Kirkby to achieve 70 per cent of the available expenditure on non food shopping as Liverpool was such a powerful competitor, relatively nearby. He thought 50 per cent was optimistic but more likely'.He added he did not think Liverpool One would be affected by the Kirkby development. But he also said the size was out of sync' with the retail hierarchy of the sub region. He said the Skelmersdale scheme was significantly smaller than was being proposed for Kirkby'.He said Kirkby's role was exactly the same as that of Huyton and Prescot, which operated well but did not aim for a greater market share of non food shopping. This would not happen because of the proximity of Liverpool,  Buy Fifa 16 Coins which had a much greater non food offer.
