Planning Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Dixon-Smith (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 6 November 2008. It occurred during Debate on bills on Planning Bill.
My Lords, I admit that that would cause a great deal of difficulty, and I have not gone through that. I suspect the noble Baroness will take us through it. My noble friend Lord Jenkin of Roding may have an answer as he has greater experience than I have. I would have thought that a national policy statement that was approved by only one House and not the other would, in the wording which I am putting forward, not be a national policy statement. A national policy statement would clearly require the approval of both Houses. If that were the situation, the Government would have to go back to work and put something together which could get the approval of both Houses.
