Business question from Tobias Ellwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 16 June 2005. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
May I ask for an urgent debate on the responsibility and accountability of regional assemblies? Many people in England are unaware of how powerful these bodies have become. For example, there are plans by the South West regional assembly to build 21,000 more homes on Bournemouth's green belt, yet Bournemouth council is now powerless to stop this and no longer allowed to make its own judgment as to the planning requirements needed for its area.
