Planning and Infrastructure BillContribution
The noble Baroness, Lady Andrews, made the point that proportionality depends on who you are and whether something seems proportionate. If the noble Lord, Lord Banner, could give us a clear definition of proportionality—the Royal Town Planning Institute has one in its documents—there would be merit in it, but just saying “Let’s be proportionate” has less merit.
