Proceeding contribution from Robert Neill (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 24 November 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Planning Bill.


Planning Bill

Before I leave the right hon. Gentleman to the tender mercies of my hon. Friend the Member for Beckenham (Mrs. Lait), can he help me on this matter? Given the Minister's surprising and uncharacteristic degree of cynicism, how does he square what he said with the statement of his ministerial colleague the noble Baroness Andrews, who said in the other place:"““We support the underlying aim of the amendment.””—[Official Report, House of Lords, 12 November 2008; Vol. 705, c. 694.]?" If the Government support the underlying aim, it cannot be logical to suggest that it comes from some motive to prevent excessive development.
