Speaking in the House of Lords on 29 October 2025

Debate

Planning and Infrastructure Bill

Contribution

Sir Jon Cunliffe concluded in his commission report—which I understand the Government acknowledged, accepting most of its major recommendations—that not terminating the automatic right to connect and continuing to have it in place is putting pressure on existing sewage network systems. For those two fundamental reasons, I urge the Government to give this issue a degree of urgency.
