Clause 39 - Local development orders
Planning and Compulsory Purchase Bill
4:00 pm
Mr Tony McNulty (Parliamentary Under-Secretary, Office of the Deputy Prime Minister; Harrow East, Labour)
I apologise for rushing out and in again; I had a call of nature. I should be courteous and tell everybody, although I am sure that they would rather not know.
I wish to respond to one simple point. We shall, by order, ensure that LDOs in no way impinge on the environmental impact assessment process. Other than that, I am grateful for the Committee's acclamation of the clause.
Question put and agreed to.
Clause 39 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
