Hide AdMatthew Jones, the assistant to Arundel and South Downs MP Mr Herbert, who is the Conservatives' secretary for the environment, food and rural affairs, said: "There are still a lot of unanswered questions about the Ford eco-town.
"A lot of issues need to be raised because there are so many things wrong with the eco-town process.
"This debate will be a good chance to get the government minister to answer questions in public, face to face, to get away from the press releases coming out of the government."
