Proceeding contribution from Lord Sassoon (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 11 June 2025. It occurred during Debate on bill on Holocaust Memorial Bill.


Holocaust Memorial Bill

I am now getting more and more confused. The Minister has just said that there will be a new planning inquiry, or a new planning process, but before he said that there might be only a round table or written representations. He just used the word “new”—I heard it very clearly. Can the Minister tell us on how many occasions when a planning application has been called in to a Minister has a further planning inquiry been held? I do not know what the precedents are, but it would be very interesting to hear if there are any precedents for a planning inquiry at this stage leading to a new inquiry.
