Proceeding contribution from Geoffrey Clifton-Brown (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 2 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Planning Bill.


Planning Bill

The Minister has made it quite clear that the IPC cannot operate in the absence of a policy statement on a submission or application. Will he therefore say when he thinks that the first of those policy statements will be rolled out, bearing in mind that the Select Committees involved will have a considerable amount of work to do, because the first scrutiny is likely to be the most time-consuming? When are the first national policy statements likely to be rolled out, and when will the IPC be in a position to operate?
