Proceeding contribution from Jamie Reed (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 11 November 2010. It occurred during Backbench debate on Policy for Growth.


Policy for Growth

The hon. Gentleman is making some terrific points, and I agree with many of his comments so far. He will know that the energy sector is responsible for approximately half of our manufacturing sector, and that we need to get quicker investment in UK manufacturing and industry on stream right now, facilitated by the Government and the private sector, including the global private sector, to meet our energy needs. Does he share my fear that the constant re-evaluation, reinterpretation and reformulation of planning policy is inhibiting that, and will cost the country financially?
