Planning Bill

Proceeding contribution from David Leslie Taylor (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 10 December 2007. It occurred during Debate on bills on Planning Bill.
My hon. Friend speaks persuasively about Heathrow, the largest passenger airport in the country. The largest numbers of freight aircraft use East Midlands airport, and it is not entirely a flight of fancy to envisage that the Government, in their fourth term, or perhaps another Government, might desire a second runway at that airport and ram it through using the infrastructure planning commission. That would mean a total lack of accountability against all the environmental, community and economic considerations. That is an open invitation for a judicial review, is it not?
