Clause 42 - Power to decline to determine applications
Planning and Compulsory Purchase Bill
10:00 am
Mr Geoffrey Clifton-Brown (Cotswold, Conservative)
I am interested in what my hon. Friend is saying. He has had enormous experience of the planning system, and he will confirm that we have not discussed the matter. I also said on Second Reading that I was in favour of abolishing twin-tracking. However, having had the representations from these worthy and important outside bodies, I am convinced of the usefulness of twin-tracking, exactly in line with what my hon. Friend has said.
