Clause 19
Finance Bill

If I could broaden the debate for a moment, the hon. Gentleman was talking about lead times. Is it not the case that, for individual planning applications, it may well be possible to go ahead and submit a planning application for a very small development? The problem is that there are very large developments on the cards for the coming years which are exactly the type of developments that need to be zero-carbon, but they will probably not go ahead on that basis.
