John Lamont

Conservative — Berwickshire, Roxburgh and Selkirk

Speaking in the House of Commons on 10 June 2025

Debate

Planning and Infrastructure Bill

Contribution

My hon. Friend is making an excellent speech. Does he agree that one of the flaws of the Bill, which his amendments attempt to address, is that it overreaches not only in attacking property rights in this country and interfering with the market, but in taking away key aspects of democratic accountability? That is why so many of our constituents across the United Kingdom are so concerned about what the Bill attempts to do.
