Proceeding contribution from Baroness Scott of Bybrook (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 4 September 2023. It occurred during Debate on bill on Levelling-up and Regeneration Bill.


Levelling-up and Regeneration Bill

My Lords, I do not intend to detain the House for long with Amendment 184A, which is intended solely to avoid any ambiguity arising in relation to the meaning of our changes to Section 38 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004. It clarifies that any determinations are to be made in accordance with the combined effect of the development plan and any applicable national development management policies. This was always our intention, but this amendment seeks to put the matter beyond doubt. I hope your Lordships will be pleased to support it. I beg to move.
