Proceeding contribution from Lord Greaves (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 12 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Localism Bill.


Localism Bill

My Lords, I cannot avoid teasing the noble Lord, and I hope he will answer this question. The national planning policy framework will replace planning policy statements and such of the old planning policy guidance documents as still exist. Why was it not necessary to have a requirement for planning policy statements on the face of primary legislation if it is now necessary to have it for the NPPF?
