Proceeding contribution from Clive Betts (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 2 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Planning Bill.


Planning Bill

Does my hon. Friend accept that there is problem? I hope that we could eventually find a way whereby we could resolve any conflict on orders that might arise between this House and the House of Lords, but the legislation process to which he referred is about the two Houses examining how different amendments that are moved in one place and not the other can eventually be reconciled. The problem with these orders is that there is just one vote on them; they are not amendable orders, so there is no process for resolving a situation where one House votes one way and the other House votes the other.
