Proceeding contribution from Baroness Whitaker (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 20 October 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Planning Bill.

Planning Bill

I shall speak very briefly to Amendment No. 413ZA and deal also with Amendments Nos. 413B and 432B, which are in the next group, since they all concern the identical issue of discrimination against Gypsies and Travellers. My noble friend’s intention to omit Clause 177, which I welcome most warmly, does away with the need for the first two amendments. Regarding the third amendment, she has kindly written to me to explain safeguards to avoid discrimination, which will be attached to the criteria for determining the procedure provided for by Clause 190. I am extremely grateful for that too, so I shall not be moving any of these three amendments.
