Proceeding contribution from Lord Brooke of Alverthorpe (Labour) 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 to the noble Lord for giving way. If my memory is correct, we had a similar problem with the Gambling Act, where a statutory instrument that defined the areas in which the casinos would be located had gone through the Commons. It came here and, contrary to usual practice, this House voted it down, and it was lost from the Government’s programme.
