Labour (Co-op) — Vauxhall and Camberwell Green

Speaking in the House of Commons on 13 November 2025

Debate

Planning and Infrastructure Bill

Contribution

Just this week at the Housing, Communities and Local Government Committee, the new Secretary of State outlined that the Government will not be urging national development management policies to be non-statutory. That almost seems at odds with the Government’s direction of travel, which is towards speeding up the national scheme of delegation. Will the Minister explain why the Government are taking the approach of making the guidance non-statutory?
