Proceeding contribution from Lord Greaves (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 4 February 2013. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Growth and Infrastructure Bill.


Growth and Infrastructure Bill

I am not sure that the Minister has actually answered my question. I accept what the Minister has said that it is requested—as it is for ordinary planning applications. But in an ordinary planning application, if the pre-application consultations have not taken place, that is not a reason for refusing to accept and register an application. If I am wrong, I would be delighted to hear from the Minister but I do not think I am wrong. But in the case of an application for development consent that is to be dealt with nationally, is it actually a requirement and would the application not be accepted without it?
