Planning and Infrastructure Bill - Commons Reasons and Amendments – in the House of Lords at 5:45 pm on 24 November 2025.
Baroness Taylor of Stevenage:
Moved by Baroness Taylor of Stevenage
That this House do not insist on its Amendment 3, to which the Commons have disagreed for their Reason 3A.
3A: Because the Commons consider that it would create a duplicative process and cause unnecessary delay.
Motion C1 (as an amendment to Motion C) not moved.
Motion C agreed.
As a bill passes through Parliament, MPs and peers may suggest amendments - or changes - which they believe will improve the quality of the legislation.
Many hundreds of amendments are proposed by members to major bills as they pass through committee stage, report stage and third reading in both Houses of Parliament.
In the end only a handful of amendments will be incorporated into any bill.
The Speaker - or the chairman in the case of standing committees - has the power to select which amendments should be debated.
