Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, if he will call in planning application number 20/02559/FU by Leeds Bradford Airport for the construction of a new terminal building and associated modifications.

If Leeds City Council are minded to approve the application, the application will be referred to the Secretary of State under the Town and Country Planning (Consultation) (England) Direction 2009, due to its scale and green belt location.

Once the referral has been received by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, the Direction provides that the local planning authority shall not grant permission until the expiry of 21 days, unless the Secretary of State has notified within that time that he does not intend to call-in the application.
