Proceeding contribution from Tessa Munt (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 16 July 2026. It occurred during Backbench debate on National Planning Policy Framework.
National Planning Policy Framework
I wonder how the High Court came to its decision over the site in Yatton. What the Minister says sounds good to me, but it can be swept away because the NPPF is what the judge decreed was the way to go and, because there is a need for homes, the sequential test can be completely ignored.
