PHILIP Davies has written more letters to the Government department responsible for planning and local government than any other MP, new figures show.
The Department for Communities and Local Government said the Cullingworth and Denholme MP had sent 132 items of correspondence to ministers since last year's general election.
He is 30 ahead of the second most diligent writer, Stone MP Sir Bill Cash.
"Writing to ministers is one of the ways to get the views and concerns of my constituents across," said Mr Davies.
"This particular department deals with planning and many of my constituents are worried about proposed developments on greenfield sites.
"I have made representations to Government and will continue to do so, demanding it ensures Bradford Council meets its obligations not to build on the greenbelt.
"There are many brownfield sites that can be developed."
Mr Davies was also recently revealed as the MP who spoke most frequently in the Commons chamber.
In a 12-month period, he contributed 438 times to debates and Parliamentary question sessions.
"I take advantage of all the options open to me to raise issues and problems that need to be tackled in my constituency," he added.
"I will continue using every avenue available to get the best deal for my area."
