Baroness Taylor of Stevenage (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 29 October 2025

Debate

Planning and Infrastructure Bill

Contribution

I am loath to explain the Legislation Office’s rationale. I am surprised that the amendment was allowed for the planning Bill, but we are where we are. I am trying to respond as straightforwardly as I can: we want to put this cumulative impact assessment in as quickly as we can, but we do not believe that this Bill is the right place for it. We want to put it in a Bill where it is in scope and will do that as quickly as possible.
