Neighbourhood Planning Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Beecham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 8 February 2017. It occurred during Debate on bills and Committee proceeding on Neighbourhood Planning Bill.

My Lords, speaking as a lawyer, although happily not practising, I see no need to amend the term “injury” to “damage”. Legally, injury embraces damage of all kinds. I would not go to extremes to defend the Government on this or any other occasion, but if the Minister felt disinclined to accept the amendment, I would not dissent from his judgment.
