Proceeding contribution from Greg Clark (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 17 May 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Localism Bill.


Localism Bill (ways and means)

I understand the hon. Lady's point, but I hope she accepts that we have stated clearly that we are very comfortable with the classic definition of sustainable development, which will be prominent—in fact, it could not be more prominent—in the planning policy framework. She has no grounds for concern. Her Committee asked for an assurance that sustainable development would continue to be part of planning policy, and I take that point.
