Speaking in the House of Lords on 9 September 2025

Debate

Planning and Infrastructure Bill

Contribution

As part of the framework for permission in principle, the Secretary of State already has powers, through Section 100 of the Town and Country Planning Act, to make an order to revise or revoke a planning application or permission in principle. So, a further power to direct a local planning authority to revise or revoke a permission in principle is unnecessary. I therefore kindly ask the noble Baroness to withdraw her amendment.
