Proceeding contribution from Andrew George (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 18 January 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Parish Councils (Planning).


Parish Councils (Planning)

It would be helpful if the Minister for Local Government would clarify the point in his reply, but I understand that a parish council is not a statutory consultee. Its role is even more subordinate than that. There is no requirement on the local authority to consult the parish council; it is consulted merely out of courtesy.
