Democratic Unionist Party — Strangford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 29 October 2026

Debate

Major Trauma Centres: Helipads

Contribution

I want to clarify one wee matter. First, I very much welcome the national review that the Minister has described. On some occasions, there are issues with planning. Will the national review be able to address specific issues and ensure that, where there may be planning objections, there can be an arrangement to ensure that helicopters can safely access helipads? We would not want to see planning holding that up.
