Proceeding contribution from Lembit Opik (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 21 July 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Housing and Regeneration Bill.


Housing and Regeneration Bill

Let me just say to the right hon. Gentleman that I love appropriate development. Our concern is that there needs to be appropriate devolution of the decision making behind that development. Our questions are therefore not so much about preventing development as about ensuring that local authorities are genuine partners in the process, rather than junior partners subjugated to an all-powerful HCA.
