Proceeding contribution from Lord Judd (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 14 October 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Planning Bill.


Planning Bill

I shall take the opportunity of the noble Lord’s important remarks to make another point that naturally follows from them. If legislation gives national parks this special planning responsibility, and people volunteer their services to do a serious job of work on that responsibility, and great care is taken in their selection so far as national representatives are concerned, is it not a slap in the face that they are not explicitly to be one of the bodies to be consulted in this process?
