Proceeding contribution from Lord Jenkin of Roding (Conservative) 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 grateful for that and for the Minister’s apology for not being able to produce the answer in time for Report, which is what I asked for. However, it is more important to get it right than to do it quickly. I think the noble Lord sitting on her right might recognise the problems of the amendments we were dealing with yesterday on the Energy Bill. This is of huge importance, and it is important to get it right. The noble Lord, Lord Low, and I can take some comfort from what the Minister said, as can the communities on whose behalf we speak. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
