Infrastructure Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Andrew Gwynne (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 26 January 2015. It occurred during Debate on bills on Infrastructure Bill [Lords].

The process described by the Minister seems incredibly convoluted, not least because if a listing application is made, the local authority will decide on the application, and it will then receive planning protections. Why not just give the planning protections in the first place, and allow the local authority to decide, through the planning process, whether or not the pub should be saved for the future?
