Proceeding contribution from Lord Stunell (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 8 November 2007. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Local Government and Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Debate on the Address.


Local Government and Environment, Food and Rural Affairs

That intervention brings me neatly on to consideration of what is wrong with the planning system at the macro-level. All sorts of decisions—my hon. Friend has just produced an example of one—finish up on the Secretary of State's desk. It is unimaginable to me that the Secretary of State would, in signing off the inspector's report, have particular regard to the circumstances of a takeaway in Carshalton and Wallington. There is something wrong there.
