Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 November 2025

Debate

Planning and Infrastructure Bill

Contribution

This modest amendment is a step in the right direction. It continues to surprise me that health and well-being do not satisfactorily figure in planning policy. I know that the National Planning Policy Framework will be raised by the Minister. Up to a point, as has already been pointed out, the policies within the National Planning Policy Framework are not compulsory, not specific and not wide-ranging enough.
