Asked by:
Dr Kieran Mullan (Conservative)

I have been engaged in discussions with the Deputy Prime Minister and my other honourable friends to discuss the Government’s plan to reform planning.

This Government was elected on a mandate to build the homes that Britain desperately needs while protecting nature including National Landscapes. That is exactly what we will do.
