Conservative — Aldridge-Brownhills

Speaking in the House of Commons on 10 June 2025

Debate

Planning and Infrastructure Bill

Contribution

When it comes to infrastructure, such as battery energy storage systems, it is not just the Scottish Borders that are affected, but areas like mine, Aldridge-Brownhills in the west midlands. I support what my hon. Friend says about this feeling like encroachment, and about increasing compulsory purchase powers. Where will it end?
