Proceeding contribution from Lord Burnett (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 6 November 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Planning Bill.
Planning Bill
My Lords, I am very grateful to the Minister for giving way. I think there is consensus around the House that there is a very powerful case for these national policy statements. The Minister makes a very powerful argument. She has talked about the planning system being uncertain and expensive and about the fact that we need a predictable planning system. I am moved to ask her whether the Government will alter, or try to streamline, the remaining elements of the planning system which are also unsatisfactory.
