Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hanham (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 31 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Localism Bill.


Localism Bill

My Lords, the initial expectation in the NPPF was that there would be a balanced approach to this. There are the three legs that are really relevant to planning: economic, social and environmental. Brundtland, of course, includes science, and we have been given lots of other ideas of what it might include. If I can just leave it at that, we expect this to be a balanced approach to sustainable development and we recognise that there are elements that are more reflective of the planning system. Then we will have to wait and see what comes out of the discussions.
