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 know that my hon. Friend withdrew an amendment proposing to deprive developers or property owners of their right to appeal. He will know, as a robust free-marketeer, that when planning consent was nationalised, it took away people's opportunity to do what they wanted with their property, and that that became subject to the right of appeal. I think that that is a reasonable safeguard. I want to make the local plan clear and sovereign, so that it becomes the determinant of planning applications, so that they do not need to go to appeal.
