Schedule 1 - Local development orders: procedure
Planning and Compulsory Purchase Bill
4:15 pm
Mr Matthew Green (Ludlow, Liberal Democrat)
I would like to add my support to the amendment. In a sense, it proposes the local equivalent of a sunset clause. I am generally in favour of such clauses, because there is far too much legislation lying around that is out of date, or not used. It would be sensible to review orders after a reasonable time. We can argue about the number of years, but the amendment is worthy.
