Speaking in the House of Lords on 24 July 2025

Debate

Planning and Infrastructure Bill

Contribution

There are many measures that we need to take. I think the small-scale, farm-scale reservoir approaches that are implicit in this amendment have significant potential. I hope Ministers will look at permitted development rights at the 25,000 cubic metre threshold and say that we can go beyond that to a higher level of permitted development rights on small-scale reservoirs.
