🚩Govt. admits concessions to Pt 3 of the Planning Bill are tokenistic and a 'tactical retreat' to speed the Bill up through the Lords. The amends don't help nature. Killing snails won't make mortgages any more affordable for homebuyers. Reeves presents a false dichotomy here
CIEEM Statement on Planning and Infrastructure Bill Amendments. "The fight goes on!" cieem.net/cieem-statemen…
I've tabled two amendments to the Planning & Infrastructure Bill: enforcing an “overall improvement test" or—if govt keep weakening nature protection—striking out Part 3 so they have to rewrite it. Report Stage is in June; the govt must fix the issues with this Bill before then.
⏸️ Pausing Part III of the Planning and Infrastructure Bill isn’t obstructionism—it’s a plea for due process. 👇 Read more in the op-ed written by @ejmilnergulland, @natduffus, @alexaculver and @sophusticated. zerohour.uk/planningbillpa…
The claims are made in an exclusive op-ed in @TheENDSReport today, where leading experts ask for a pause on the Planning Bill’s nature reforms in "a plea for due process". Op-ed below, by @sophusticated @NatDuffus @AlexaCulver @EJMilnerGulland endsreport.com/article/191226…
🚨 Planning and Infrastructure Bill: Pause Part III 🚨 It risks harming nature, slowing developers, and hiking costs. Right now, it’s a ‘lose, lose’ for the economy and the environment. It needs consultation, assessment, and piloting to secure a ‘win, win’ for all. Watch why!
