Proceeding contribution from Lord Young of Cookham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 7 May 2008. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Thatched Roofs (Planning Policy).


Thatched Roofs (Planning Policy)

The Minister has been enormously helpful. My ears pricked up earlier when I heard him say that he took a slightly different view. Does he think it practicable to expect someone to wait for 12 months before their roof is re-thatched in the hope that next year there is an appropriate harvest for the material on which the local authority planning department insists?
