New clause 4 - Effect of revision or revocation of
Planning and Compulsory Purchase (Re-committed) Bill
10:45 am
Mr Matthew Green (Ludlow, Liberal Democrat)
I welcome the new clause and the four amendments. It was welcome that the hon. Member for Spelthorne spotted the point in question during our previous proceedings—I think that it was one of the few occasions on which he did not mention terminal 5 at Heathrow and we were probably grateful for that at the time. However, he was right to raise the issue and the Government were right to bring it forward. The provisions deal with an anomaly that would have existed in the Bill in its original form, so I am glad to see them.
