Planning Reform

Proceeding contribution from Dan Poulter (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 13 March 2024. It occurred during Debate on Planning Reform.

I do not disagree with a number of my right hon. Friend’s points. One concern that people have at a local level in Suffolk, and more generally, about additional house building is that it very rarely comes with the additional infrastructure that he mentions. More houses are built, but more pressure is put on the local infrastructure—on schools, hospitals, GP surgeries and the roads. What does he suggest as a mechanism to change that, so that if people accept more house building, they actually get the infrastructure that is needed?
