Proceeding contribution from Lord Hunt of Kings Heath (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 understand that, but we are talking about pressing strategic matters. We know that primary legislation sometimes takes a long time to deal with. It is a question of balance: a judgment needs to be made about whether you have new primary legislation or whether the flexibility in the Bill serves the purpose. The Government think that the flexibility serves a purpose.
