London Olympics Bill

Proceeding contribution from Jacqui Lait (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 21 July 2005. It occurred during Debate on bills on London Olympics Bill.
I am most grateful to the right hon. Lady because this could reduce the length of my speech. Under clause 4, which refers to the ODA’s planning powers, she herself said in her earlier comments that the LDA is in negotiation with roughly 350 businesses at present, but under the terms of the Bill the ODA has to implement the current planning guidelines. That means that there is a limit to the negotiations. Is she saying that the planning legislation overrides the negotiations that the LDA is currently undertaking, such that 350 businesses could well go out of business because they cannot get the proper value that they should get?
