Speaking in the House of Lords on 5 March 2026

Debate

English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill

Contribution

I respectfully suggest that these safeguards address the points made about the former amendment to the Planning and Infrastructure Bill on this subject, and they ensure that statutory trusts that are otiose and serve to frustrate the public interest will no longer blight the land in question, while maintaining any such trusts where they are justified due to social, environmental or other considerations.
