Proceeding contribution from Baroness Ford (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 23 October 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Planning Bill.

Planning Bill

Will the Minister write to noble Lords with some idea of how long the consultation process that the noble Earl referred to will take? It is important that we understand this. I draw attention to the recent development at Elephant and Castle, where the Section 106 agreement has been revised over the past two months to enable that development still to go ahead. I suspect that if that had had to go through a whole process, which might have taken six to nine months, we would have missed the market and stalled the development. Will she give that more consideration?
