Speaking in the House of Lords on 20 October 2025

Debate

Planning and Infrastructure Bill

Contribution

Reintroducing a statutory test of consultation at the acceptance stage would risk reinstating the very behaviours we are trying to move away from. I reassure the noble Baroness that the Government’s proposals do not diminish the importance of consultation. With these reassurances, I ask her not to press her amendments.
