Conservative — Aldridge-Brownhills

Speaking in the House of Commons on 17 January 2025

Debate

New Homes (Solar Generation) Bill

Contribution

This is becoming increasingly worrying, because we are now starting to see policy on grey belt. I fear that if we do not thoroughly grasp the issue of where solar panels, battery storage and all the other renewables infrastructure should go, we risk green belt being all of a sudden redefined as grey belt, in a few years’ time, and being built on.
