Baroness Bennett of Manor Castle (GP)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 9 September 2025

Debate

Planning and Infrastructure Bill

Contribution

The noble Baroness talked about people who would not dream of participating. It is also worth stressing that certain people would not be able to participate because of disabilities, caring responsibilities and other reasons. In fact, given the responsibilities the Government have in terms of protected characteristics, surely that would make the argument for this amendment.
