Levelling-up and Regeneration Bill

Matt Western Excerpts

2nd reading
Wednesday 8th June 2022 Commons Chamber

[Michael Gove]

I give way to the hon. Member for Warwick and Leamington (Matt Western).

[Matt Western (Warwick and Leamington) (Lab)]

The Secretary of State is being generous. On housing and the constraint of local authorities, in my constituency, we have an over-supply of 4,000, which a previous Housing Minister described as “very ambitious”—in other words, too much development. May I bring him back to the lack of GPs in infrastructure supply through development? Will he make NHS Providers a statutory consultee in any of these developments?

[Michael Gove]

Let me reflect on that in Committee.
