Proceeding contribution from Hazel Blears (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 10 December 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Planning Bill.

Planning Bill

I will gladly do that. The hon. Gentleman will see that in the clauses we set out the range of nationally significant infrastructure projects. They include ports and harbours, and projects to do with aviation, energy, water, waste water, and waste disposal. Many of the limits determining when a project will be a major project are set out in the Bill. An example would be energy projects over 50 MW. There is detail in the clauses about the ambit of the legislation, and where it is designed to bite on specific projects.
