Labour (Co-op) — Vauxhall and Camberwell Green

Speaking in the House of Commons on 9 June 2025

Debate

Planning and Infrastructure Bill

Contribution

As I outlined in my opening comments, the planning system does not work. It is broken, just as we have a broken housing market and a housing crisis. I mentioned the 74 children who died in the past five years; 58 were under the age of one. As Members of Parliament representing different parts of the country, we might disagree with aspects of developments in our constituencies, and we must not let developers off the hook when they often fail to deliver quality in new housing.
