Planning Bill Campaign: the need to consider climate change

The Planning Bill will soon become law, with no mention of climate change and with communities having no meaningful right to participate in decisions about where they live.

The Planning Bill will affect all major infrastructure projects such as roads, airports and power stations.

It has now been debated in Parliament and is currently in the House of Lords. In the autumn the Bill will pass back to MPs for the final vote, after which it will become law.

These next few months are therefore critical getting MPs to support our changes to the Bill.

See our planning pages for more information on the Planning Bill. Please contact Jenny if you would like further help or information.
