Lord Ravensdale (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 December 2024

Debate

Planning Reforms: Net-zero Carbon Emissions

Contribution

My Lords, I declare my interests as listed in the register. A Written Ministerial Statement from December last year is preventing a number of sustainable developments from being built across the UK, including Salt Cross in Oxfordshire, because it is constraining local authorities’ efforts to build houses that go beyond current building energy-efficiency regs. Can the Minister say what plans the Government have to revoke that Written Ministerial Statement and allow these developments to go ahead?
