Growth and Infrastructure Bill

Proceeding contribution from Bill Esterson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 November 2012. It occurred during Debate on bills on Growth and Infrastructure Bill.

In an intervention a few minutes ago, the Secretary of State said that he would be working with the Local Government Association. Of course, the LGA has said that the barriers to growth are nothing to do with the planning system. Does my right hon. Friend intend to come on to that point—I am sure he does—and comment on the fact that it is the lack of funding that is the problem, not the planning system?
